Prime Time Love Lyrics

Playing it safe so long
You lost your inspiration
Clinging to things that turn out wrong
Won't help a situation

Making me pay for the unhappy times
(That's bummer)
Maybe the moon night make you change your mind

So don't hold back, contact
Give yourself a bit of some prime time love
Don't fight, what feels right
You're looking in the face of prime time love

I know she left you cold
That's why you need protection
Buying the lies that you were sold
Keeps you from true affection

Why waste your nights on trying to find
(Someone better)
Baby, my arms are going to be so kind

So don't hold back, contact
Give yourself a bit of some prime time love
Don't fight, what feels right
You're looking in the face of prime time love
So don't hold back, contact
Give yourself a bit of some prime time love
Don't fight, what feels right
You're looking in the face of prime time love

Trust is the answer
That's how it starts
I'll take my chances
This one's from the heart

So don't hold back, contact
Give yourself a bit of some prime time love
Don't fight, what feels right
You're looking in the face of prime time love

So don't hold back, contact
Give yourself a bit of some prime time love
Don't fight, what feels right
You're looking in the face of prime time love
