Lyrics
Yeah
Expression of agreement or acknowledgment
You are my fire
Addressing the person as a source of warmth or passion
The one desire
Highlighting a strong longing or wish
Believe when I say
Requesting belief in a forthcoming statement
I want it that way
Expressing a specific desire for a particular situation
But we are two worlds apart
Emphasizing a significant distance or disconnect
Can't reach to your heart
Unable to connect emotionally
When you say
Quoting the partner's statement
That I want it that way
Reiteration of the desire stated earlier
Tell me why
Request for an explanation or reason
Ain't nothin' but a heartache
Acknowledging a feeling of heartache
Tell me why
Acknowledging a mistake or regret
Ain't nothin' but a mistake
Repetition of acknowledging a mistake
Tell me why
Reiteration of the question "Tell me why"
I never wanna hear you say
Expressing a strong preference to not hear a specific statement
I want it that way
Reiterating the desire expressed earlier
Am I your fire?
Seeking confirmation of being a source of passion
Your one desire
Reiteration of being the one desired
Yes, I know it's too late
Acknowledging a realization that it might be too late
But I want it that way
Reiteration of the desire despite the timing
Tell me why
Repetition of the question "Tell me why"
Ain't nothin' but a heartache
Reiteration of experiencing heartache
Tell me why
Reiteration of acknowledging a mistake
Ain't nothin' but a mistake
Repetition of acknowledging a mistake
Tell me why
Reiteration of the question "Tell me why"
I never wanna hear you say
Strong aversion to hearing a specific statement
I want it that way
Reiterating the desire expressed earlier
Tell me why
Repetition of the question "Tell me why"
Ain't nothin' but a heartache
Reiteration of experiencing heartache
Tell me why
Reiteration of acknowledging a mistake
Ain't nothing but a mistake
Repetition of acknowledging a mistake
Tell me why
Reiteration of the question "Tell me why"
I never want to hear you say (never wanna hear you say)
Strong aversion to hearing a specific statement
I want it that way
Reiterating the desire expressed earlier
Tell me why
Repetition of experiencing heartache
Ain't nothin' but a heartache
Acknowledging a feeling of heartache
Ain't nothin' but a mistake
Acknowledging a mistake or regret
Tell me why
Reiteration of the question "Tell me why"
I never want to hear you say (don't want to hear you say)
Strong aversion to hearing a specific statement
I want it that way
Reiterating the desire expressed earlier
'Cause I want it that way
Providing a reason for the desire
