  • Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh (ooh-ooh)
    Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh (ooh-ooh)
    Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh (ooh-ooh)
    Ooh-ooh

    You hit like a drunk cigarette
    The feelin' amplified
    By sayin' things we never meant, oh, yeah
    You leave me filled with regret
    At the end of the night
    I always find myself wonderin' why, oh, yeah

    Do you got plans for life?
    'Cause I don't wanna just romance tonight
    I wanna see you in another light, oh, yeah
    With rhythm, there is rhyme
    With you, there always can be I
    I wanna see you in another light, ooh

    I don't wanna talk down on your lover
    I don't wanna be a homewrecker
    I just know I can be better, be better, be better
    I don't wanna talk down on your lover
    I don't wanna be a broken record
    I just know I can be better, be better, be better

    We sit on the fire escape
    We talk and talk 'til dawn
    I open up to you about my wrongs, oh, yeah
    Then we lay and contemplate
    Just one more round of love
    Before you go home to another one

    Do you got plans for life?
    'Cause I don't wanna just romance tonight
    I wanna see you in another light, oh, yeah
    With rhythm, there is rhyme
    With you, there always can be I
    I wanna see you in another light, ooh

    I don't wanna talk down on your lover
    I don't wanna be a homewrecker
    I just know I can be better, be better, be better
    I don't wanna talk down on your lover
    I don't wanna be a broken record
    I just know I can be better, be better, be better

    I don't wanna be how you formulate opinions on astrology, oh no
    Or to say we made peace
    And then your friends don't even wanna talk to me, no more, no more
    I wanna kiss you on the bed and on the floor
    When I'm poor, when I'm bored
    I am yours, I am yours, I am yours

    I don't wanna talk down on your lover
    I don't wanna be a homewrecker
    I just know I can be better, be better, be better
    I don't wanna talk down on your lover
    I don't wanna be a broken record
    I just know I can be better, be better, be better

    Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh (ooh-ooh)
    Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh (ooh-ooh, ooh)
    Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh (ooh-ooh, ooh)
