lyrics

I just can't let it go tonight
I just can't let it go, it just doesn't feel right
Because you and me, we were meant to be
Ain't that right
I feel a gentle rain on my back
Feel like a stinging pain like a heart attack
Now I have begun to wonder
Is this a spell I'm under

Now I get so depressed every time that I think of it
Every ounce of my self respect just dangling in the breeze
And I keep myself in check with all the weight of my intellect
But I'm losing sleep

And I guess you know
And I guess I'll never learn
The more you play fire the more you going to burn
Will I ever learn

No one can make me feel like you do
Are you really real, are you truly true
Cause you got me spinning baby
You got me spinning baby
You got me spinning around and around now

Now I get so depressed every time that I think of it
Every ounce of my self respect just dangling in the breeze
And I keep myself in check with all the weight of my intellect
But I'm losing sleep

And I guess you know
And I guess I'll never learn
The more you play fire the more you going to burn
Will I ever learn

I'm on a bus heading cross town I'm looking for you
I can't see through these tears in my eyes
I believe you're gonna leave me
And I can't see or even think straight
I'm losing sleep, I'm losing weight
I can't see around this mess no matter where I look and I look
Oh one time baby please give me something I can feel

And I guess you know
And I guess I'll never learn
The more you play fire the more you going to burn
Will I ever learn
