|
Wow, it's really good to see you again, baby |
|
And I must admit you're looking very, very, very nice these days |
|
I guess life must be treating you well |
|
Oh, me |
|
Well, I've just been doin' the same old thing I've always been doin' |
|
You know, I've got a new lady now |
|
And it's a little different than it was when I was with you |
|
You know, I think back to when we met |
|
The way I used to be and the cold way I used to act |
|
But more than that, I think of how you changed me |
|
With your love and sensitivity, remember when I used to |
|
Love them and leave them, that's what I used to do |
|
Use and abuse them, then I laid eyes on you |
|
It was pain before pleasure, that was my claim to fame |
|
With every measure, baby, tasted teardrop stains, yeah |
|
I was cold as ice long ago, baby, baby |
|
I wasn't very, very, very nice, you know, sugar, sugar, sugar |
|
Then I kissed your lips and you turned on my fire, baby |
|
And you burn me up within your flame |
|
Took me a little higher, made me live again |
|
You turned on my fire, baby |
|
Then you showed me what a love could do |
|
Fire and desire, baby, feel it comin' through |
|
And I thank you, baby |
|
Oh, how I thank you, baby, you taught me so much |
|
You showed me so much love and insensitivity |
|
That since you've been gone I don't think I've ever felt this way before |
|
You know it's funny how a man can change |
|
So quickly from a cold blooded person thinkin' he's God's gift to women |
|
Remember how I used to do that, I must have been crazy then |
|
Remember when you used to |
|
Love them and leave them, that's what I used to do |
|
Use and abuse them, then I laid eyes on you |
|
It was pain before pleasure, that was my claim to fame |
|
With every measure, tasted teardrop stains, yeah |
|
You were cold as ice long ago, baby, baby |
|
(I, I wasn't, I, I wasn't very nice, I know) |
|
Sugar, sugar, sugar, sugar |
|
Then I kissed your lips |
|
And you turned on my fire, baby |
|
Then you showed me what a love could do |
|
Fire and desire, feelin' good to you |
|
You turned on my fire, baby |
|
And you burn me up within your flame |
|
Fire and desire and we're both to blame, both to blame |
|
You know, I guess I think we both said a little too much today |
|
After all Tee, you're kind of with somebody else |
|
I'm kind of livin' with somebody |
|
But please do me a favor just before you go |
|
Just put your arms around me and hold me like you used to |
|
Tell me, "Rick, everything is gonna be alright" |
|
Put your arms around me |
|
Put your arms around me |
|
Oh, baby, oh, baby |
