I Want It That Way

Yeah

You are my fire

The one desire

Believe when I say

I want it that way

But we are two worlds apart

Can't reach to your heart

When you say

That I want it that way

Tell me why

Ain't nothin' but a heartache

Tell me why

Ain't nothin' but a mistake

Tell me why

I never want to hear you say

I want it that way

Am I, your fire?

Your one, desire

Yes I know, it's too late

But I want it that way

Tell me why

Ain't nothin' but a heartache

Tell me why

Ain't nothin' but a mistake

Tell me why,

I never want to hear you say

I want it that way

Now I can see that we've fallen 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 want to hear you say

Ain't nothin' but a heartache

Ain't nothin' but a mistake

(Don't want to hear you say)

I never want to hear you say

I want it that way

Tell me why

Ain't nothin' but a heartache

Tell me why

Ain't nothin' but a mistake

Tell me why

I never 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 want to hear you say it)

I want it that way

'Cause I want it that way
