Lyrics
0:03Wow it's really good
0:08To see you again baby
0:12And I must admit
0:13You're looking very very
0:14Very nice these days
0:19I guess life must
0:20Be treating you well oh me
0:26Well I've just been doin' the same
0:27Ol' thing I've always been doin'
0:28You know I've got a new lady now
0:31And it's a little different
0:32Then it was when I was with you
0:37You know I think back to
0:38When we met
0:41The way I use to be
0:42And the cold way I used to act
0:45But more than that
0:46I think of how you changed me
0:48With your love and sensitivity
0:50Remember when I used to
0:53Love them and leave them
1:05That's what I used to do
1:10Use and abuse them
1:17Then I laid eyes on you
1:19It was pain before pleasure
1:28That was my claim to fame
1:34With every measure baby
1:39Tasted teardrop stains yeah
1:46I was cold as ice long ago
1:51Baby baby
1:57I wasn't very very
1:59Very nice you know
2:02Sugar sugar sugar
2:08Then I kissed your lips
2:09And you tuned on my fire baby
2:23And you burn me up
2:24Within your flame
2:29Took me a little higher
2:33Made me live again
2:35You turned on my fire baby
2:44Then you showed me
2:45What a love could do
2:51Fire and desire baby
2:56Feel it comin' through
3:00And I thank you baby
3:05Oh how I thank you baby
3:10You taught me so much
3:11And you showed me so much
3:13And love and insensitivity
3:15That since you've been gone
3:17I don't think I've ever felt
3:18This way before
3:22You know it's funny
3:23How a man can change
3:24So quickly from a cold blooded person
3:26Thinkin' he's God gift to women
3:29Remember how I use to do that
3:33I must have been crazy then
3:37Remember when you used to
3:41Love them and leave them
3:51Oh that's what I used to do
3:55Use them and abuse them whoa
4:02Then I laid eyes on you
4:05It was pain before pleasure
4:13Oh that was my claim to fame
4:20With every measure
4:25Tasted your teardrop stains yeah
4:32You were cold as ice
4:36Long ago baby baby
4:41I I wasn't I I wasn't very nice
4:45I know woo
4:48Sugar sugar sugar sugar
4:53Then I kissed your lips
4:55And you turned on
4:59My fire
