If I seem like a little too much to handle

If I laugh like an angel on judgment day

If I burn like the sparks of a roman candle

Oh baby you made me that way



If my heart starts to pound like a bass drum drummin'

Like the beat when an old Sun record plays

And if I turn my back when the train is comin'

Oh baby you made me that way



I used to play it safe

Never thinkin' what I might miss

Who knew there'd come a day

I would come alive like this

With just one kiss



If I choose the edge over the middle

If I moan at the sound of a certain name

And if I lean just this side of illegal

Oh baby you made me that way



Well I used to play it safe

Never thinkin' what I might miss

Who knew there'd come a day

I would come alive like this

With just one kiss



If I seem like a little too much to handle

If I laugh like an angel on judgment day

And if I burn like the sparks from a roman candle

Oh baby you made me that way

Well, I'm proud to say

Oh baby you made me that way
