Verse 1:
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 -- listen
all I want is someone I can´t resist
I know all I need to know by the way that I got kissed
Chorus:
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
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
Verse 2:
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
Chorus:
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
