Lyrics[]

I saw your face
Elegant and tired
Cut up from the chase
Still I so admired

Bloodshot your smile
Delicate and wild
Give me she-wolf style
Rip right through me

Silveretta, the jets of a lifetime
Go and get her I've got her on my mind
Nothing better the feeling is so fine
Simply put I saw your love stream flow

Come on baby cause there's no name for
Give it up and I got what I came for
Universally speaking
I take it back and you make me nervous
Nothing better than love and service
Universally speaking,
I win in the long run

I saw your crime
Dying to get high
Two of a kind
Beats all hands tonight

Silveretta, the jets of a lifetime
Go and get her I've got her on my mind
Nothing better the feeling is so fine
Simply put I saw your love stream flow

Come on baby cause there's no name for
Give it up and I got what I came for
Universally speaking
I take it back and you make me nervous
Nothing better than love and service
Universally speaking,
I win in the long run

Silveretta, the jets of a lifetime
Go and get her I've got her on my mind
Nothing better the feeling is so fine
Simply put I saw your love stream flow
