[Verse 1]
I'm happy you came to me first
Before the bubble burst
I'm happy you answered my calls
I'm bouncing off the walls
Impossible to be tamed
Her need; cellophane
I'm happy you like to play games
Why did you run away?

[Chorus]
We could spend some time together
What he had, he'll never know
Your boyfriend gives you no respect
And I can see your getting it
So let’s figure it out, let's go

[Verse 2]
I'm happy you're so impulsive
Means that your passionate
I’m happy you're moving so fast
But will it ever last
I know you want to break free
From this monotony
I'm happy you're coming with me
But by choice it’s gotta be

[Chorus]
We could spend some time together
What he had, he'll never know
Your boyfriend gives you no respect
And I can see your getting it
So let’s figure it out, let's go

[Verse 3]
I'm happy you're changing your speed
Slow down and lay with me
On bottom but always discrete
Kneel down and kiss her feet
I'm happy you’re going too far
Full strength before we start
Sometimes you make it so hard
Scream loud as we come apart

[Chorus]
We can spend some time together
What he had he'll never know
Your boyfriend gives you no respect
And I can see your getting it
So figure it out, let's go
We can spend some time together
What he has he'll never know
Your boyfriend gives you no respect
And I can see your getting it
So figure it out, let's go
Figure it out, let's go
Figure it out, let's go
Figure it out, let's...go

Maroon 5 is an American pop rock band. They were originally formed in 1994 as Kara’s Flowers while they were still attending high school. They signed to Reprise Records and released an album, The Fourth World, in 1997. After a mediocre response to the album, the band parted with their record label and attended college, but in 2001, the band regrouped, added James Valentine to the lineup, and pursued a new direction under the name Maroon 5.

Their first big hit came in the form of “Harder to Breathe,” the edgier lead single from their debut, Songs About Jane. The continued success of that song and other singles “This Love,” “She Will Be Loved,” and “Sunday Morning” cemented the quintet as a pop-rock band to keep an eye out for.

However, for their second album, It Won’t Be Soon Before Long, they switched to ambing up on slick pop production—and it worked for them. Lead single “Makes Me Wonder” jumped 63 places in one week to reach number one, becoming their first ever #1 single.
