I Want It That Way Lyrics

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 wayTell me why ain't nothin' but a heartache
Tell me why ain't nothin' but a mistake
Tell me why I never wanna hear you say
I want it that wayAm I your fire? Your one desire?
Yes, I know, it's too late but I want it that wayTell me why ain't nothin' but a heartache
Tell me why ain't nothin' but a mistake
Tell me why I never wanna hear you say
I want it that wayNow 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 meYou are my fire, the one desire
You are, you are, you are, you are
Don't wanna hear you sayAin't nothin' but a heartache
Ain't nothin' but a mistake
(I wanna hear you say)

I never wanna hear you say
I want it that wayTell me why ain't nothin' but a heartache
Tell me why ain't nothin' but a mistake
Tell me why I never wanna hear you say
(I wanna hear you say)
I want it that wayTell me why ain't nothin' but a heartache
Ain't nothin' but a mistake
Tell me why I never wanna hear you say
I want it that way
'Cause I want it that way
