[Verse 1]
Baby, I don’t want to spend my life on trial
For something that I did not do
And maybe if you stopped and looked around some time
I wouldn’t pass right by you
Maybe it’s because you are so insecure
Maybe you plain don’t care
Maybe it’s the chase that really gets me off
I fall so when it’s just not there

[Pre-Chorus]
Burn another bridge, break another heart
Try again, it will only fall apart

[Chorus]
Infatuation
Not seeing the rest of you is getting the best of me
It’s such a shame that you shot me down
It would have been nice to be around
I’m touching your skin
If it’s only a fantasy, then why is it killing me?
I guess this must be infatuation
(I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it)

[Verse 2]
Try to put my finger on what burns me up
It always seems to escape me
And when you have decided that you've had enough
Just tell me where I need to be
Now I'm facing something that I never had
To ever deal with before
She left me with the feeling that she'd had enough
And I'm the one wanting more

[Pre-Chorus]
Burn another bridge, break another heart
Try again, it will only fall apart

[Chorus]
Infatuation
Not seeing the rest of you is getting the best of me
It’s such a shame that you shot me down
It would have been nice to be around
I’m touching your skin
If it’s only a fantasy, then why is it killing me?
I guess this must be infatuation
(I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it)

[Bridge]
I'm so attracted to you
The feeling's mutual too
And I get scared the moment you leave
Get so hot I forget to breathe, yeah

[Chorus]
Infatuation
Not seeing the rest of you is getting the best of me
It’s such a shame that you shot me down
It would have been nice to be around
I’m touching your skin
If it’s only a fantasy, then why is it killing me?
I guess this must be infatuation
(I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it)

[Outro]
Ooh (I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it)
Ooh (I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it)
Yeah (I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Maroon 5

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.
