There was a time when I was
so broken hearted
Love wasn't much of a friend of mine
The tables have turned, yeah
'Cause me and them ways have parted
That kind of love was the killing kind
Listen, all I want is someone I can't resist
I know all I need to know
by the way that I got kissed
I was cryin' when I met you
Now I'm tryin' to forget you
Your love is sweet misery
I was cryin' just to get you
Now I'm dyin'
'cause I let you
Do what you do down on me, yeah
Now there's not even breathing room
between pleasure and pain
Yeah, you cry when we're making love
Must be one and the same
It's down on me
Yeah, I got to tell you one thing
That's been on my mind
Girl, I gotta say
We're partners in crime, you got
that certain something
What you give to me takes my breath away
Now the word out on the street
is the devil's in your kiss
If our love goes up in flames,
it's a fire
I can't resist
I was cryin' when I met you
Now I'm tryin' to forget you
Your love is sweet misery
I was cryin' just to get you
Now I'm dyin'
'cause I let you
Do what you do to me, yeah

'Cause what you got inside
Ain't where your love should stay
Yeah, our love, sweet love, ain't love
'Til you give your heart away
Yeah, listen
I was cryin' when I met you
Now I'm tryin' to forget you
Your love is sweet misery
I was cryin' just to get you
Now I'm dyin'
'cause I let you
Do what you, do what you do
down to, no no
Oh yeah, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby…

I was cryin' when I met you
Now I'm tryin' to forget you
Your love is sweet misery
I was cryin' just to get you
Now I'm dyin'
'cause I let you
Do what you do down to, no no
Oh yeah, baby, baby, baby…
I was cryin' when I met you
Now I'm tryin' to forget you
Your love is sweet misery
