I Want It That Way

by Jonathan Young

on I Didn't Write Any of This (Vol. 1) (2014)

You are my fire, the one desire
Believe, when I say that I want it that way
But we are two worlds apart, can't reach to
Your heart when you say that I want it that way

Tell me why (Ain't nothin' but a heartache)
Tell me why (Ain't nothin' but a mistake)
(Tell me why) I never wanna hear you say
I want it that way

Am I your fire? Your one desire?
'Cause I know it's too late
But I want it that way

Tell me why (Ain't nothin' but a heartache)
Tell me why (Ain't nothin' but a mistake)
(Tell me why) I never wanna hear you say
I want it that way

Now I can see that we've fallen apart
From the way that it used to be, yeah
No matter the distance I want you to know
That deep down inside of me

You are my fire, the one desire
You are, you are, you are, you are

Tell me why (Ain't nothin' but a heartache)
Tell me why, oh yeah (Ain't nothin' but a mistake)
(Tell me why) I never wanna hear you say
I want it that way

Tell me why (Ain't nothin' but a)
(Ain't nothin' but a) Yeah
(Ain't nothin' but a mistake) Oh yeah
Tell me why I never wanna hear you say
I want it that way

'Cause I want it that way
