lyrics

[Intro]

Woah, uh, uh, uh, uh
Woah, uh, uh, uh

[Verse 1]

It's a mistake only the first time
Then after that it's up to you
When can I say "I've hit the lowest,"
And have it actually be true?
I'm biting every hand that reaches
Give me an inch, I'll make you bleed
We all exploit all of our closest -- is that a family?

[Chorus]

"Forget it"? I could never!
You cannot remember
Or take another point of view
Our love could last forever
If you word it like you do

[Post-Chorus 1]

If you word it like you do
Oh, word it like you do

[Verse 2]

Well, we all know I'm on my own now
Another time, another place
But nowhere else has been a home
Like you and your baby-face

[Chorus]

"Forget it"? I could never!
You cannot remember
Or take another point of view
Our love could last forever
If you word it like you do

[Bridge]

Woah, uh, uh, uh, uh
Woah, uh, uh, uh

[Chorus]

"Forget it"? I could never!
You cannot remember
Or take another point of view
Our love could last forever
If you word it like you do

[Post-Chorus 2]

You gotta word it like you do
You gotta word it like you do
You gotta word it like you do, ow, ow, ow

[Outro]

Woah, uh, uh, uh, uh
Woah, uh, uh, uh
Woah, uh, uh, uh, uh
Woah, uh, uh, uh
