Ache, throbbing ache Throbbing ache, throbbing ache Here in the heart Stings, a hot sting Stinging Love stings I have pain, the anguish I have throbbing pain So real Wink, wink your eye Wink your eye, wink and tease With a throbbing ache Move, move your body Move your body, your big body Soft and warm Move forward, be gentle Give love with a throbbing ache Surely Tell the refrain Give love with a throbbing ache Surely |
