Lyrics
In the beginning when life was simple
We were at each other night and day
You were so sensual and so inventive
We said we'd stick together come what may
In the beginning, you were so brutal
You turned the heat on in the afternoon
Get so excited, get so addicted
You had me eating from your golden spoon
Now I don't wanna spoil the party
I know it goes against the grain
As the plane touched down I got movies of you
Running through my fevered brain
I really love my sweet thing
I can't give her up
I really love my sweet thing
I can't give her up
I really love my sweet thing
I can't give her up
In the beginning, when we were winning
I was your ever-present love-sick fool
You turned the heat off and left me standing
Freezing by your swimming pool
I can't give it up
I can't give it up
I can't give it up
I can't give it up
Now I don't wanna spoil the party
I know it goes against the grain
As the plane touched down and the midnight moon
Can't just walk away
Really love my sweet thing
Wanna lick it up
Really love my sweet thing
Wanna lick it up
Can't give it up, shake it
Really love my sweet thing
Can't give it up
I can't give it up
I can't give it up
I can't give it up, really, really, really, really, really
Really love my sweet thing
I can't give it up
I can't give it up
I can't give it up, hey
