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 killin' kind
Now 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
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
Now there's not even breathin' room
Between pleasure and pain
Yeah you cry when we're makin' love
Must be one and the same
It's down on me
Yeah I got to tell you one thing
It'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
'Cause what you got inside
Ain't where your love should stay
Yeah, our love, sweet love, ain't love
If you give your heart away
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' just to let you
Do what you do what you do down to me,
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' when I met you
Now I'm dyin' cause I let you
Do what you do down to , down to, down to, down to
I was cryin' when I met you
Now I'm dyin' to forget you
Your love is sweet
I was cryin' when I met you

How can I just let you walk a-way,
Just let you leave with-out a trace?
When I stand here taking ev'ry breath with you: ooh,
you're the only one who really know me at all.
How can you just walk away from me.
When all I can do is watch you leave?
'Cause we shared the laughter and the pain.
And even shared the tears.
You're the only one who really knew me at all.
So take a look at me now, well,
there's just an empty space.
And there's nothing left to remind me,
just the mem'ry of your face.
Well, take a look at me now,
well, there's just an empty space.
And you comin' back to me is against the odds,
and that's what Ive got to face.
I wish I could just make you turn around.
Turn around and see me cry.
There's so much I need to say to you,
So many reasons why.
You're the only one who really knew me at all.
So take a look at me now, well,
there's just an empty space.
And there's nothing left to remind me,
just the mem'ry of your face.
Well, take a look at me now,
'cause there's just an empty space.
But to wait for you is all I can do,
and that what I've got to face.
Take a good look at me now.
'cause I'll still be standing here.
And you comin' back to me is against all odds,
it's the chance I've got to take
Take a look at me now.
