On the Loose Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I know what she's like, she's out of her mind
And wraps herself around the truth
She'll jump on that flight and meet you that night

And make you tear up the room

[Pre-Chorus]
She loves when everybody's watching
She knows the way her body moves
She loves the way they all crawl back when she says
That she loves nobody else but you


[Chorus]
She's on the loose (She's coming, she's coming)
She's on the loose (She's coming, she's coming for you)
She's on the loose (She's coming, she's coming)
She's on the loose (She's coming, she's coming for you)

[Verse 2]
She'll dance in the dark, a real work of art
Her eyes could burn down the room

So get out while you can, you don't understand
She doesn't know how to lose


[Pre-Chorus]
She loves when everybody's watching
She knows the way her body moves
She loves the way they all crawl back when she says
That she loves nobody else but you
[Chorus]
She's on the loose (She's coming, she's coming)
She's on the loose (She's coming, she's coming for you)
She's on the loose (She's coming, she's coming)
She's on the loose (She's coming, she's coming for you)

[Bridge]
She'll run with your mind and pull you in tight
Then trade you in for something new
I know what it's like, I fell for it twice
And now I'm just warning you


[Pre-Chorus]
She loves when everybody's watching
She knows the way her body moves
She loves the way they all crawl back when she says
That she loves nobody else but you
She loves when everybody's watching
She knows the way her body moves
She loves the way they all crawl back when she says
That she loves nobody else but you

[Chorus]
She's on the loose (She's coming, she's coming)
She's on the loose (She's coming, she's coming for you)
She's on the loose (She's coming, she's coming)
She's on the loose (She's coming, she's coming for you)
She's on the loose
She's on the loose

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

You can hear the ‘Mac in that. Everyone’s always trying to write their own “Dreams”. I’m only 24, Fleetwood Mac is the music I’ve listened to since I was four years old. I listen to a lot of other types of music but that’s the stuff that always stuck around with me.
