Woke up in the middle of the night with a stranger at my door Light skewed with the Devil's eyes, she wouldn't be ignored I can't even fall asleep without waking up to trouble It's a temporary high, I'm slipping away Not a liberating high, I'm slipping away
[Pre-Chorus:] I’m counting on love to save me from this life I’m living I’m counting on love to show me everything I’m missing One more time for love, yeah, one more time for love I’m counting on love to save me from this life I’m living
[Chorus:] Whoa, little mama, you got the sugar now No, little mama, ain’t gonna mess around Ain’t gonna mess around, ain’t gonna mess around
Sweet dreams never came to me so I stay up every night Get lost in the city street to try to find a different life Last night didn't mean a thing but a temporary high It’s a temporary high, I'm slipping away Just a temporary high, I'm slipping away
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]
One way, fast lane Put it down, put it down, okay They say, "don't change" If I don't I'mma go insane
