I just told a lie
You know, you're more than a friend of mine
And I just realized how much you really mean
To me

When you were close to me
There was always something I couldn't see
Ah, but since you've been away, it's been a long, long time
Now I know I want you to be mine

Yeah
'Cause you make me sing like a bird
Growl like a dog
Howl like a wolf
Scream like a witch
Purr like a little pussycat
And there's something I like about that

I'd love to hear you say
That you feel the same way
And that, when tomorrow comes, you'll be on a plane coming home
Back home, again

Yeah
'Cause you make me sing like a bird
Growl like a dog
Howl like a wolf
Scream like a witch
Purr like a little pussycat
And there's something I like about that

Oh, yeah

(musical interlude)

You make me sing like a bird
Growl like a dog
Howl like a wolf
And scream like a witch
Purr like a little pussycat
And there's something I like about that

Oh, yeah!

You make me sing like a bird
Growl like a dog
Howl like a wolf
And scream like a witch
Purr like a little pussycat
And there's something I like about that!
