Lyrics
1.
Im not a modern Romeo, kinda dig your style
Ill keep you warmer when youre cold, its time you realize
That I, I never understood why you were so vain
Heartfelt sensation when we met, still feel the same.
PRE-CHORUS:
Come on baby, take a chance on me, therell be no turning back as you can see.
CHORUS:
So glad, Im happier when youre glad
Wouldnt be sad for me to know you wont let go; its kiss and tell just for awhile.
2.
In many ways I tried to make the grade, never said I would quit
No worth in trying to keep hold an emotion so sweet
Ill add that spark into your life, rehumanize your soul
That shines beyond these broken walls, I cant stand it no more.
PRE-CHORUS:
Going in circles, running wild for free; could be those evil moods that change the scenery.
CHORUS:
So glad, Im happier when youre glad
Wouldnt be sad for me to know you wont let go; its kiss and tell just for awhile.
So glad, Im happier when youre glad
Dont be shy let those feelings show, they grow on and on as lame memories kept us apart.
Instrumental break
PRE-CHORUS:
Ill be yours truly, get down on my knees..all those tears once shed we got to let them be
CHORUS:
So glad, Im happier when youre glad
So glad, Im happier when youre glad
ENDING:
Lips that brought that magic touch, heard your voice once in a while
Its no use for you to try all you do is let it go
Guess again: theres no control, on the fast lane from time to time
Makes me stop and wonder why, didnt pretend to sound so cold
Just say that you wont hurt me, I dont have nothing to hide
This one is out to get you so will you please let it drop by.
CHORUS:
So glad, Im happier when youre glad
Dont call yourself a liar, just treat me like you should
Were burning with desire an inner wish that might come true
CHORUS: So glad, Im happier when youre glad
(Repeat and Fade)
