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 from 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
When 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.
