Once I loved this girl,
I knew she was the sweetest thing I'd ever seen.
But that was all:
Something so beautiful, but cast-asideable was she.
And they say that love is something edible
Something incredible, but I
Don't see the need for something as sweet as your love
To keep me up all night.
Oh! Yeah!
Good god, I'm on fire!
Burning with desire!
Who could ever get tired of this?
See the line that I drew in the sand,
It illustrates the bitter divide
Between the man that I've been trying to be
And the boy that I've been trying to hide.
A little sugar on a medicine-stick
Made a cure out of a miracle love, love, love.
I took a bullet in the shoulder for you
And in the morning it hurt like...
Oh! Yeah!
Good god, I'm on fire!
Burning with desire!
Who could ever get tired of this?
Not me, that's for sure.
Once I loved this girl

Good god, I'm on fire!

Not me, that's for sure.
