Lips like sugar Sugar box Since the day you walked into my dream I have felt an older side revealed Taking me and standing way above Making me dishonest with your love Oo! 'Cause I was always far to lonely to believe You could want me back now Prey Oh! And it was always second chances I received Don't you want me back now Prey Learning sometimes takes a little time Holding out and hoping that it's mine Falling out and falling in between Turn myself around myself I see Oh! 'Cause I was always far to lonely to believe You could want me back now Prey Oh! And it was always second chances I received Don't you want me back now Ah sugar box Lips like sugar Sugar, sugar box Aah lips like sugar Sugar box Burning with the hurting of a child Crying out and hoping that it's mine Sliding out and drifting on away I've turn myself around once in this game Oh! 'Cause I was always far to lonely to believe You could want me back now Prey, prey Oh! and it was always second chances I received Don't you want me back now Ah ah ah ah sugar box Aah she had lips like sugar Sugar box She said Lips like sugar Sugar Box!
