Wow.
It's really good to see you again, baby.
And I must admit you're looking very, very, very nice these days.
I guess life must be treating you well.
Oh me?
Well, I've just been doing the same ol' thing I've always been doing, you know.
I've got a new lady now and it's a little different than it was when I was with you.
You know, I think back to when we met, the way I used to be and the cold way I used to act.
But more than that, I think of how you changed me with your love and sensitivity.
Remember when I used to
Love them and leave them
That's what I used to do Use and abuse them
Then I laid eyes on you
It was pain before pleasure
That was my claim to fame
With every measure, baby
Tasted teardrop stains, yeah
I was cold as ice, long ago baby, baby
I wasn't very, very, very nice you know
Sugar, sugar, sugar
Then I kissed your lips and
You turned on my fire, baby
And you burned me up within your flame
Took me a little higher
Made me live again
You turned on my fire, baby
Then you showed me what a love could do
Fire and desire, baby
Feel it comin' through
And I thank you baby
Oh how I thank you, baby.
You taught me so much and you showed me so much love and sensitivity,
that since you've been gone
I don't think I've ever felt this way before.
You know, it's funny how a man can change so quickly from a cold blooded person,
thinking he's God's gift to women.
Remember how I used to do that?
Must have been crazy then.
Remember when you used to
TM: Love them and leave them (oh)
That's what I used to do Use and abuse them (whoa)
Then I laid eyes on you
It was pain before pleasure (oh)
That was my claim to fame
With every measure
Tasted your teardrop stains, yeah
[Rick James (Teena Marie)]
You were cold as ice, long ago Baby, baby
(I, I wasn't, I, I wasn't very nice, I know)
Sugar, sugar, sugar, sugar Then I kissed your lips and you
(You turned on)
turned
(You turned on)
On
(You turned on)
My fire, baby
(Fire)
Then you showed me what a love can do Fire and Desire
(Fire and Desire)
Feelin' good to you You turned on my fire
(you turned on fire)
Baby And you burned me up within your flame
(You burned me, you burned me)
Fire and desire.
(Fire and Desire)
And we're both to blame, both to blame
