LYRICS:
Talk to me
I’ll listen endlessly
It’s an emergency
Always all of the time
I want you to see
You’re entitled to me
It’s an emergency
Always all of the time
You’re a puzzle making my head go round
There just isn’t any sense into what I’ve found
Everybody’s screaming at me to come around
But a puzzle ain’t solved until you have your crown
You’re a puzzle making my head go round
There just isn’t any sense into what I’ve found
Everybody’s screaming at me to come around
But a puzzle ain’t solved until you have your crown
Give me time to get even
Try to admit what you owe
Like the changing of the seasons
The signs are starting to show
You’re a puzzle making my head go round
There just isn’t any sense into what I’ve found
Everybody’s screaming at me to come around
But a puzzle ain’t solved until you have your crown
You’re a puzzle making my head go round
There just isn’t any sense into what I’ve found
Everybody’s screaming at me to come around
But a puzzle ain’t solved until you have your crown
Talk to me
I’ll listen endlessly
It’s an emergency
Always all of the time
It’s an emergency
Always all of the time
You’re a puzzle making my head go round
There just isn’t any sense into what I’ve found
Everybody’s screaming at me to come around
But a puzzle ain’t solved until you have your crown
You’re my puzzle
You’re my puzzle to solve
You’re my puzzle
You give me reason to evolve
You’re a puzzle making my head go round
There just isn’t any sense into what I’ve found
Everybody’s screaming at me to come around
But a puzzle ain’t solved until you have your crown
