[VERSE 1]
Lover don't love too much
It's a bad thing, a sad thing
And it's heaven to the touch
Hey, everybody's got some moment in their life
They can't change (don't they, baby?)

I know you don't care what's right or wrong
All that I know is that love don't belong here
And so it's better to turn the page
And watch me walk away, my dear
Watch me walk away

But you say

[Chorus]
I can't stop but you know that I want to
I can't stop, don't you know that I want you?
I want you baby (more than ever)

I can't stop but you know that I want to
I can't stop, don't you know that I want you?
But it's never gonna be that easy, child

I don't wanna waste your time
(Hey)

[VERSE 2]
Lover don't love too much
I'm a bad boy, I'm a sad boy
And I'll never give you much
Hey, everybody's got some moment in their life
They can't change

So I do not dare to take you home
All that I know
Is that something's so wrong with this heat
Why do you touch the flame?
You know you feel the pain, my dear
You always find it here

But you say

[Chorus]
I can't stop but you know that I want to
I can't stop, don't you know that I want you?
(Oh)
I want you baby (more than ever)

I can't stop but you know that I want to
I can't stop, don't you know that I want you?
(Oh)
But it's never gonna...

[BRIDGE]
So it happens every time
It's so easy to forgive myself with a little wine
But you want more
And the pleasure will be all mine
Can't you see
Oh, I'm using you, baby?

[Chorus]
I can't stop but you know that I want to
(You say)
I can't stop, don't you know that I want you?
(Please don't say)
I want you baby (more than ever)

I can't stop but you know that I want to
(You say)
I can't stop, don't you know that I want you?
(Oh)
But it's never gonna be that easy, child

You need a lover
And I am just a friend
