You are
My fire, the one
Desire, believe
When I say
I want it that way

But we
Are two worlds
Apart
Can't reach to
Your heart
When you say
That I want it that way

Tell me why
Ain't nothin' but a heartache
Tell me why
Ain't nothin' but a mistake
Tell me why
I never wanna hear you say
"I want it that way"

Am I
Your fire, your one
Desire, yes, I know
It's too late
But I want it that way

Tell me why
Ain't nothin' but a heartache
Tell me why
Ain't nothin' but a mistake
Tell me why
I never wanna hear you say
"I want it that way"

Now I can see that we're fallin' apart
From the way that it used to be
No matter the distance, I want you to know
That deep down inside of me

You are
My fire, the one
Desire, you are....
You are....
You are....
You are....

Don't wanna hear you say
"Ain't nothin' but a heartache"
"Ain't nothin' but a mistake"
(Don't wanna hear you say)
I never wanna hear you say (Oh yeah)
I want it that way

Tell me why
Ain't nothin' but a heartache
Tell me why
Ain't nothing but a mistake
Tell me why
I never wanna hear you say (Don't wanna hear you say)
"I want it that way"

Tell me why
Ain't nothin' but a heartache
Ain't nothin' but a mistake
Tell me why
I never wanna hear you say
"I want it that way"

'Cause I want it that way
