There was a time
When I was so brokenhearted
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
[So 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 crying when I met you
Now I’m trying to forget you
Your love is sweet misery
I was crying just to get you
Now I’m dying ’cause I let you
Do what you do, down on me

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
It’s been on my mind, girl I gotta say
We’re partners in crime
You got that certain something
What you do 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 crying when I met you
Now I’m trying to forget you
Your love is sweet misery
I was crying just to get you
Now I’m dying ’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
’Til you give your heart away

I was crying when I met you
Now I’m trying to forget you
Your love is sweet misery
I was crying just to get you
Now I’m dying to let you
Do what you do, what you do, down on me
Baby, baby, baby

I was crying when I met you
Now I’m trying to forget you
Your love is sweet misery
I was crying when I met you
Now I’m dying ’cause I let you
Do what you do down to, down to, down to

I was crying when I met you
Now I’m trying to forget you
Your love is sweet misery
