There was a time
When I was so brokenhearted
Love wasn't much of a friend of mine
The tables have turned, yeah
'Cause me and them ways have parted
That kind of love was the killin' kind
Listen...
All I want is someone I can't resist
I know all I need to know by the way
That I got kissed
I was cryin' when I met you
Now I'm tryin' to forget you
Love is sweet misery
I was cryin' just to get you
Now I'm dyin' 'cause I let you
Do what you do, down on me...yeah
Now there's not even breathin' room
Between pleasure and pain
Yeah you cry when we're makin' love
Must be one and the same
It's down on me
Yeah I got to tell you one thing
It's been on my mind
Girl I gotta say
We're partners in crime
You got that certain something
What you give to me
Takes my breath away
Now the word out on the street
Is the devil's in your kiss
If our love goes up in flames
It's a fire I can't resist
I was cryin' when I met you
Now I'm tryin' to forget you
Your love is sweet misery
I was cryin' just to get you
Now I'm dyin' 'cause I let you
Do what you do to me
'Cause what you got inside
Ain't where your love should stay
Yeah, our love, sweet love, ain't love
'Til you give your heart away...yeah ( ? )
I was cryin' when I met you
Now I'm tryin' to forget you

Baby, baby, baby, baby, ba ba ba...

I think this song is about one of those relationships that you can't live with or without. Damned if you do, damned if you don't.
thsi song makes me cry everytime i hear it. im not a sappy person either. it just reminds me of my parents marriage. its off and on again and it is just recycled. but it would be sung by a woman instead. my mom met my dad after my real father died. and he just pulls her around like she is a bag on manure sometimes.
Don't you think this is a great drinking song.........
This song really rocks. It's one of those songs that can be played all the time and doesn't get old. I think the song is about a relationship that seemed great at first but then turned a lot worse. It's something I think a lot of people can actually relate to.
sure.. if you like that lonely-feeling sorry-pathetic-solo drinking..=)
Steven himself has said that this is about a BLOWJOB, and now he can't shake the girl.Read the lyrics people!!!
@lucarocks Yup, she went down on him, gave him AIDS, and now he’s dying as a result. Sad song.

I think this song is about a bad type of love. you want out but you cantlive without
This is a really great song. It has a really cool sound and i love it. I think it has to do with a relationship that turned into something bad. Even though the broke up, he can't get her out of his mind.
Or that drinking where your friends pat your back as you cry and dribble snot all over their brand new peasant blouse and they mouth to your other friend over your head "HELP!"
my feeling right now..my boyfriend just dumped me and i found it hard to forget him..
