Body Wishes - Alternate Mix

The night closes in on another day

As the oldest game's gettin' underway

On the minds of a million people, body wishes

So you climb on the carousel and take a chance

The same old ritual, the same old dance

The hardest thing to resist is body wishes

If the fire down below's gettin' worse and worse

You're so close to shootin' that you want to burst

Somebody's sponge needs squeezin', body wishes

What do I say?

Nobody gonna tell ya

Where do I go?

Somewhere, someone'll have ya

Who do I tell?

Anybody that'll listen

No one should know

To solve the problem

Body wishes, body wishes

Body wishes, body wishes

Away in the distance, a baby cries

But you know somebody's by her side

The night drags on forever, body wishes

You can hear the tickin' of a lonely clock

The howlin' wind that just won't stop

Somebody's cherries need pickin', body wishes

What do I say?

Nobody gonna tell ya

Where do I go?

Somewhere, someone'll have ya

Who do I tell?

Anybody that'll listen

No one should know

To solve the problem

It'll tear you apart like an angry sea

Keep you warm like a summer breeze

It's all we've got in a cold, cold world

Is to love someone

Body wishes, body wishes

Something's happenin' in the air

It feels so close, but you don't know where

The poorest people's riches, body wishes

And the cheatin' hearts just never learn

Someday someone's gonna be your turn

Don't start what you can't finish, body wishes

What do I say?

Nobody gonna tell ya

Where do I go?

Somewhere, someone'll have ya

Who do I tell?

Anybody that'll listen

No one should know

That won't solve the problem

Where do I run

Anywhere that'll hide ya

Who'll be the one? Yeah
