I Want It That Way
Lyrics and Songs by Backstreet Boys - Go back

You are my fire

The one desire

Believe when I say

I want it that way


When we are two worlds apart

Can't reach to your heart

When you say that I want it that way


Tell me why

Ain't nothing but a heartache

Tell me why

Ain't nothing but a mistake

Tell me why

I never wanna hear you say

I want it that way


Am I your fire

Your one desire

Yes I know

It's too late

But I want it that way


Tell me why

Ain't nothing but a heartache

Tell me why

Ain't nothing but a mistake

Tell me why

I never wanna hear you say

I want it that way


Now I can see that we're falling apart

From the way that it used to be, yeah

No matter the distance I want you to know

That deep down inside of me


You are my fire

The one desire

You are (You are)


Don't wanna hear you say

Ain't nothing but a heartache

Ain't nothing but a mistake

(Don't wanna hear you say)

I never wanna hear you say

(Oh yeah)

I want it that way


Tell me why

Ain't nothing but a heartache

Tell me why

Ain't nothing but a mistake

Tell me why

I never wanna hear you say

(Don't wanna hear you say)

I want it that way


Tell me why

Ain't nothing but a heartache

Ain't nothing but a mistake

Tell me why

I never wanna hear you say

(Don't wanna hear you say)

I want it that way


Cause I want it that way..
