Your love, your love
Supernatural thing
Your love, your love
Supernatural thing, oh, babe
Your love (your love, your love)
Supernatural thing (supernatural)
Oh, baby (supernatural)
Your love, your love

Supernatural thing (supernatural)
Mmm, baby (supernatural)
When we touch, you give me such
A funny feeling in my brain
I’m so possessed by your love
Sometimes I don’t even know my name
When we kiss
You know you make me hot
I break out sometimes
In little bitty green spots
You give me
Give me all you got
Don’t stop it, baby
‘Cause I need a lot
Your love (your love, your love)
