A little excuse
Amanda polkIs for you to want me
And all you gotta be
Is not so scared
All you gotta do (all you gotta do)
Is want me to want you (is want me to want you)
And all you gotta be, is there
I'm ready to begin (I'm ready to begin)
So let me out, or let me in
CHORUS:
'Cause all I need
Is a little excuse
Just a ray of hope
To hold on to
If all you really want
Is for me to love you (is for me to love you)
Then all you gotta do, is say
If you really feel (if you really feel)
Feel that you need me ('cause I need you)
Then promise me, you'll stay
I'm ready to begin (I'm ready to begin)
So let me out, or let me in
CHORUS:
'Cause all I need
Is a little excuse
Just a ray of hope
To hold on to
Tell me where to stand, and I'll be fine
Tell me what to say, I'll read my lines
But don't leave me here to wait
When I'm cold, and you're lonely
CHORUS:
'Cause all I need
Is a little excuse
Just a ray of hope
To hold on to
From your lips, a sound
That can break me down
So tell me something good
'Cause all I need
'Cause all I need
Is a little excuse
Is a little excuse
Is a little excuse
