[Verse 1]
Equations such as this can be a pleasure to behold
You and me, mathematically, add up or so I'm told
When I have my four to floor, the two of us combine
Instinctively, hypnotically, we always keep in time
Oh, I know the air tonight is the same as it was before
I can't account for feeling this
You make me beg for more

[Chorus]
Making music
Making music
Making music by numbers

[Verse 2]
Words can be my enemy but rhythm's on my side
Circulating round you while my eyes are on the prize
I couldn't plan the things I do, or calculate my move
When you and me amount to this, my number skills improve
Leave aside anxiety and just enjoy the ride
I can't be sure of where we'll go
The beat can be our guide

[Chorus]
Making music
Making music
Sweet music by numbers
Making music
Watch me use it
See me lose it
By numbers
[Instrumental breakdown]

[Chorus]
Making music
Making music
Sweet, sweet music by numbers
Making music
Making music
Sweet, sweet music by numbers
