Urgent Lyrics by Foreigner

40

1981

[Verse 1]
You're not shy, you get around
You want to fly, don't want your feet on the ground
You stay up, you won't come down
You want to live, you want to move to the sound

[Verse 2]
Got fire in your veins
Burning hot, but you don't feel the pain
Your desire is insane
You can't stop until you do it again

[Pre-Chorus]
But sometimes I wonder as I look in your eyes
Maybe you're thinking of some other guy
But I know, yes I know, how to treat you right
That's why you call me in the middle of the night

[Chorus]
You say it's urgent
So urgent, so oh-oh urgent
Just wait and see
How urgent my love can be
It's urgent

[Verse 3]
You play tricks on my mind
You're everywhere but you're so hard to find
You're not warm or sentimental
You're so extreme, you can be so temperamental

[Pre-Chorus]
But I'm not looking for a love that'll last
I know what I need and I need it fast
Yeah, there's one thing in common that we both share
That's a need for each other anytime, anywhere

[Chorus]
It gets so urgent
So urgent
You know it's urgent
I want to tell you it's the same for me (Ooh-ooh)
So urgent
Just you wait and see
How urgent our love can be
It's urgent

[Saxophone Solo]

[Chorus]
You say it's urgent
Make it fast, make it urgent
Do it quick, do it urgent
Got to rush, make it urgent
Want it quick
Make it urgent, urgent, emergency
Urgent, urgent, emergency
Urgent (Urgent), Urgent (Urgent), emergency
Urgent (Urgent), Urgent (Urgent), emergency

[Outro]
So urgent, emergency
Ooh ooh (Ooh ooh)
Ooh ooh (Ooh ooh)
Ooh ooh (Ooh ooh)
It's urgent
