[Verse 1]
I can't get over you, hard as I try
I smoked all my weed, I still can't reach that high
Woke up with your handprint still red on my thigh
I went up in smoke as you caught your red-eye
[Chorus]

And if it does, then it means that it should

No room to remember your hands on me
[Chorus]
If I shouldn't love you, why do I?
And if it's bad, why do you feel so good?
I believe everything happens for a reason
And if it does, then it means that it should
You know I'm the only one you want, come back here
And light me up
Light me up

[Chorus]
If I shouldn't love you, why do I?
And if it's bad, why do you feel so good?
I believe everything happens for a reason
And if it does, then it means that it should
You know I'm the only one you want, come back here
You know I'm the only one you want, come back here
You know I'm the only one you want, come back here
And light me up
Light me up
[Outro]
You know I'm the only one
