Take off, both your, shoes and clothes, I'll follow.
Undo, corkscrew, drink from the top of a broken bottle.
Lately we're running out of time, aren't we?

Smoking, often, and calling out our guilty pleasures,
Let's keep, talking, anything to stop clock watching.
Lately we're running out of time, aren't we?
Crazy for running all the time, m-m-m-m-maybe.
Let's forget we're running out of time.

I'm off like an airplane,
I'm licking your postage stamp again.
I'm using my right brain and I'm praying the weight will crash.
Who knew I'd come/cum so fast.
Well so what if a two pump chump can't last.

I finally made it to three, and I foreclose a five minute, fantasy.
I'll surely fight making love on economy/on account of me (not sure).
No jumping, conclusions,
I don't think there's no solution,
Let's get, backwards,
And forget our restless destination.

Let's live in this moment just this time, could we?
Just take one moment of our time m-m-m-m-maybe.
Let's forget we running out of time.

I'm off like an airplane,
I'm catching my second wind again.
I'm using my left brain
And I'm righting all my wrongs.
I'm yearning to turn you on.

I've been working on getting you off, so get on board.
Well how can I guess by the subject of the best predicate that's left unsaid when the matter is too delicate.
My loneliness is evident.

And its you,
You're running through my mind and it makes me see-see-crazy cra-cra-crazy.

La la la
La la la la la
La la la (oh, so amazing)
La la la la la la
La la la
La oh oh
La lo oh oh oh

Lady, dreamer, you might be the soundest sleeper,
Tonight, sleep tight, and build your nest upon my shoulder.

    I'm not going to argue any points. The song is purely about sex where or not he prematurely ejaculates. Maybe its about the awkwardness of being with someone for the first time and you dont know how to get to the sex unless your just easy and throw yourself at someone but I'm speaking from a more delicate romantic point of view. So you're doing everything but having sex and you keep clockwatching. Then you get to it and that first time is simply so blissful that the guy comes too soon but then you just keep doing it and it gets better and better and then its like newlyweds. You want to do it all the time and be together all the time and when you arent, it gets lonely. But then when you are, you take advantage of the closeness and fall asleep in each others arms and its pure bliss. - ahhh I love Jason Mraz. This song is definitely on my top 3 of songs to have sex to that is actually about sex. Maybe too much information for you guys but I totally get turned on every time I listen to it. Especially where he says "loneliness" and has that growl to it. GOOD FREAKING YUM!
