Girl you melt me like ice and whiskey With those blue fling looks that you give me, You can't hide what's inside And it's killing me right now to see You wanna slip off with me again Why should we go round and round the truth, Like we been doin'? Every time we lie girl we're losing So why should we spend Saturday night alone, When I can call you on the phone, pick you up Make it up as we go along Pull and all nighter chasing that desire Sparks flying in her eyes like lighters (like lighters) Get a little higher (get a little higher) Sippin' on fire You act like you don't know what you're missing, Every time you end up back with him 'Cause it's safe, and you're scared. Of everything you're feeling when We're burning the midnight down again Why should we go round and round the truth, like we been doin? Every time we lie girl we're losing So why should we spend Saturday night alone, When I can call you on the phone, pick you up Make it up as we go along Pull and all nighter chasing that desire Sparks flying in her eyes like lighters (like lighters) Get a little higher (get a little higher), Sippin' on fire Every goodbye is bitter sweet, So why should we fight what we both need? Why should we go round and round the truth, like we been doin? Every time we lie girl we're losing So why should we spend Saturday night alone, When I can call you on the phone, pick you up Make it up as we go along Pull and all nighter chasing that desire Sparks flying in her eyes like lighters (like lighters) Get a little higher (get a little higher), Sippin' on fire Girl you melt me like ice and whiskey With those blue fling looks that you give me, You can't hide what's inside And it's killing me right now to see You wanna slip off with me
