Ooh
Ah, ah, ah
I need, I need, I've got to hold on to your love
Ooh
Hey baby, thought you were the one who tried to run away
Ooh, baby, wasn't I the one who made you want to stay
Please don't bet that you'll ever escape me
Once I get my sights on you
I got a licence to kill (To kill)
And you know I'm going straight for your heart
(Got a licence to kill)
Got a licence to kill (To kill)
Anyone who tries to tear us apart
(Got a licence to kill)
Licence to kill
Hey baby, think you need a friend to stand here by your side
Yes you do (Your side)
Ooh, baby, now you can depend on me to make things right (Things right)
Please don't bet that you'll ever escape me (Ooh)
Once I get my sights on you
I got a licence to kill (To kill)
And you know I'm going straight for your heart
(Got a licence to kill)
Got a licence to kill (To kill)
Anyone who tries to tear us apart
(Got a licence to kill)
Got a licence to kill (To kill)
And you know I'm going straight for your heart
(Got a licence to kill)
Got a licence to kill (To kill)
Anyone who tries to tear us apart
Ooh, honey (Got a licence to kill)
Say that somebody tries to make a move on you
In the blink of an eye, I'll be there, too
And they'd better know why I'm gonna make them pay
'Til their dying day
'Til their dying day
'Til their dying day
Got a licence to kill (To kill)
And you know I'm going straight for your heart, baby
(Got a licence to kill)
Got a licence to kill (To kill)
Anyone who tries to tear us apart
(Got a licence to kill)
I got a licence to kill (To kill)
And you know I'm going straight for your heart
(Got a licence to kill)
Got a licence to kill (To kill)
Anyone who tries to tear us apart
(Got a licence to kill)
Ooh
Licence to kill
Gotta hold onto your loving, Ooh
Licence to kill
Mm-hmm
Kill
