Like a moth to a flame
Burned by the fire
My love is blind
Can't you see my desire
That's the way love goes

(That's the way love)
(That's the way love)
(That's the way love goes)

Like a moth to a flame burned by the fire (that's the way)
My love is blind, can't you see my desire? (That's the way)

Come with me, don't you worry
I'm gonna make you crazy
I'll give you the time of your life
I'm gonna take you places
You've never been before and
You'll be so happy that you came
Ooh, I'm gonna take you there, ooh

Don't mind if I light candles
I like to watch us play and
Baby, I've got on what you like
Come closer, baby, closer
Reach out and feel my body
I'm gonna give you all my love (that's the way love goes)
Ooh, sugar don't you hurry
You've got me here all night
Just close your eyes and hold on tight
(That's the way, that's the way)
Ooh, baby, don't stop, don't stop
Go deeper, baby, deeper
You feel so good I'm gonna cry
Oh, I'm gonna take you there, ooh

That's the way love goes
That's the way love goes
(That's the way love goes, it goes, it goes)
That's the way love goes
Ooh, that's the way love goes

That's the way love goes
Oh, that's the way love goes
Don't you know (oh), that's the way
