You've got the cool water when the fever runs high
And you've got the look of love right in your eyes
And I was in a crazy motion till you calmed me down
It took a little time but you calmed me down
Some people never say the words 'I love you'
It's not their style to be so bold
Some people never say the words 'I love you'
But like a child they're longing to be told
And they've got a wall in China, it's a thousand miles long
To keep out the foreigners they made it strong
And I've got a wall around me that you can't even see
It took a little time to get next to me
If something goes wrong I'm the first to admit it
The first to admit it but the last one to know
If something goes right well, it's likely to lose me
It's apt to confuse me because it's such an unusual sight
Oh, I can't get used to something so right, to something so right
Some people never say the words 'I love you'
It's not their style to be so bold
Some people never say the words 'I love you'
But like a child I'm longing to be told
And they've got a wall in China, yeah, yeah, yeah
And I've got a wall around me, yeah, yeah, yeah
It took a little time to get next to me
