I Want It That Way

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

Ain't nothin' but a mistake

I never wanna 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

Ain't nothin' but a mistake

I never wanna 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

Ain't nothin' but a heartache

Ain't nothin' but a mistake

I never wanna hear you say

I want it that way

I want it that way
