Lyrics
Purest feeling Purest feeling I think I'm gonna push it As far as it will go Give in to desire That only you will know So tell me all those secrets I'll stick it in your head I wish I could remember Everything she said Purest feeling Purest feeling Purest feeling Purest feeling She can be my savior With everything she does Or some kind of punishment For people just like us I don't really believe she understands What's happening to me The sooner that she gets here The better it will be Purest feeling Purest feeling Purest feeling (I have got it figured out) Purest feeling (I can't live without) Purest feeling (I have got it figured out) (I should have known all along) Purest feeling (I can't live without) Purest feeling (I have got it figured out) (I guess you figured out) Purest feeling (I can't live without)
