A monkey knows how you'll
Creating want by holding back
Some reverse pyromaniac
Let me , baby, try
I brought my window up and
I turned my back to lure you in
To rifle through�what I might've been
Let me , baby, try
Baby please let me
Let me be your heroine
Hate the sinner but love the
Let me be your heroine
We have crossed the Rubicon
The ship awash our rudder
The rats have fled but I'm hanging on
Let me , baby, try
Baby please let me
Let me be your heroine
Hate the sinner but love the
Let me be your heroine
Baby please let me
Let me be your heroine
Hate the sinner but love the
Let me be your heroine
