Equations such as this can be a pleasure to behold 
You and me, mathematically, add up or so I'm told 
When I have my four to floor the two of us combine 
Instinctively, hypnotically, we always keep in time 

Oh I know the air tonight is the same as it was before 
I can't account for feeling this 
You make me beg for more 

Making music 
Making music 
Making music by numbers 

Words can be my enemy but rhythms on my side 
Circulating round you while my eyes are on the prize 
I couldn't plan the things I do, or calculate my move 
When you and me amount to this my number skills improve 

Leave aside anxiety and just enjoy the ride 
I can't be sure of where we'll go 
The beat can be our guide 

Making music 
Making music 
Sweet music by numbers 

Making music 
Watch me use it 
See me lose it
By numbers
