You're a song written by the hands of God
Don't get me wrong 'cause this might sound to you a bit odd
But you are the place where all my thoughts go hiding
And right under your clothes is where I run for more
Underneath your clothes, there's an endless story
There's the man I chose, there's my territory
And all the things I deserve for being such a good girl on Earth
Because of you, I forgot those smart ways to lie
And because of you, I'm running out of reasons to cry
When the friends are gone, when the party's over
We will still belong to each other
Underneath your clothes, there's an endless story
There's the man I chose, there's my territory
And all the things I deserve for being such a good girl on Earth
Underneath your clothes, there's an endless story
There's the man I chose, there's my territory
And all the things I deserve for being such a good girl on Earth
I love you more than all that's on the planet
Moving, talking, walking, breathing
You know it's true, oh babe, it's so funny
You almost don't believe it
As every voice is hanging from the silence
Lamps are hanging from the ceiling
A light bulb breaks, I don't have manners
Tied up to this feeling
Underneath your clothes, there's an endless story
There's the man I chose, there's my territory
And all the things I deserve for being such a good girl on Earth
Underneath your clothes, there's the man I chose, there's my territory
And all the things I deserve for being such a good girl on Earth
Underneath your clothes, there's the man I chose, there's my territory
And all the things I deserve for being such a good girl on Earth
Underneath your clothes, there's the man I chose, there's my territory
And all the things I deserve for being such a good girl on Earth
Underneath your clothes, there's the man I chose, there's my territory
And all the things I deserve for being such a good girl on Earth
