Wow.
2
It's really good to see you again, baby.
3
And I must admit you're looking very, very, very nice these days.
4
I guess life must be treating you well.
5
Oh me?
6
Well, I've just been doing the same ol' thing I've always been doing, you know.
7
I've got a new lady now and it's a little different than it was when I was with you.
8
You know, I think back to when we met, the way I used to be and the cold way I used to act.
9
But more than that, I think of how you changed me with your love and sensitivity.
10
Remember when I used to
11
Love them and leave them
12
That's what I used to do Use and abuse them
13
Then I laid eyes on you
14
It was pain before pleasure
15
That was my claim to fame
16
With every measure, baby
17
Tasted teardrop stains, yeah
18
I was cold as ice, long ago baby, baby
19
I wasn't very, very, very nice you know
20
Sugar, sugar, sugar
21
Then I kissed your lips and
22
You turned on my fire, baby
23
And you burned me up within your flame
24
Took me a little higher
25
Made me live again
26
You turned on my fire, baby
27
Then you showed me what a love could do
28
Fire and desire, baby
29
Feel it comin' through
30
And I thank you baby
31
Oh how I thank you, baby.
32
You taught me so much and you showed me so much love and sensitivity,
33
that since you've been gone
34
I don't think I've ever felt this way before.
35
You know, it's funny how a man can change so quickly from a cold blooded person,
36
thinking he's God's gift to women.
37
Remember how I used to do that?
38
Must have been crazy then.
39
Remember when you used to
40
TM: Love them and leave them (oh)
41
That's what I used to do Use and abuse them (whoa)
42
Then I laid eyes on you
43
It was pain before pleasure (oh)
44
That was my claim to fame
45
With every measure
46
Tasted your teardrop stains, yeah
