[Verse 1] You are my fire The one desire Believe when I say I want it that way [Verse 2] But we are two worlds apart Can't reach to your heart When you say That I want it that way [Chorus] Tell me why Ain't nothing but a heartache Tell me why Ain't nothing but a mistake Tell me why I never want to hear you say I want it that way [Verse 3] Am I your fire? Your one desire Yes, I know it's too late But I want it that way [Chorus] Tell me why Ain't nothing but a heartache Tell me why Ain't nothing but a mistake Tell me why I never want to hear you say I want it that way [Bridge] Now I can see that we're falling apart From the way that it used to be, yeah 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 [Chorus] Tell me why Ain't nothing but a heartache Tell me why Ain't nothing but a mistake Tell me why I never want to hear you say (don't want to 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 want to hear you say (never wanna hear you say) I want it that way I never want to hear you say I want it that way Cause I want it that way
