(Jagger)
|
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
|
Really love my sweet thing, can't give it up
|
Really love my sweet thing, can't give it up
|
