[Verse 1:]
My mother said so many things that I know
Takes two to tango
But I know sometimes I forget
When I'm in your arms I'm a fool, I'm your Mary Anette
When were dancing close it makes me nervous
I don't deserve this, but you walk me to the floor
Over and over, the thrill is all that you want

[Chorus:]
Stop messing with my heart
I'm only a woman
Stop tearing me apart
Don't keep me at a distance
I want you to want me
I'm all out of breath
Stop teaching me lessons
Stop messing with me heart

[Verse 2:]
Go back to all the lines you were rehearsing
The very first thing you told me in the dark
You said, "In love, we're all actors and playing a part"
Sometimes your love is like a foreign language
It makes me lonesome inside of your web
I keep on trying but I never understand

[Chorus:]
Stop messing with my heart
I'm only a woman
Stop tearing me apart
Don't keep me at a distance
I want you to want me
I'm all out of breath
Stop teaching me lessons
Stop messing with me heart

[Chorus:]
Stop messing with my heart
I'm only a woman
Stop tearing me apart
Don't keep me at a distance
I want you to want me
I'm all out of breath
Stop teaching me lessons
Stop messing with me heart

[Outro:]
He makes me nervous
