I Want It That Way Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You are my fire
The one desire
Believe when I say
I want it that way

[Verse 2]
But we are two worlds apart
Can't reach to your heart
When you say
I want it that way

[Chorus 1]
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

[Verse 3]
Am I your fire?
Your one desire?
Yes I know, it's too late
But I want it that way
[Chorus 1]
Tell me why
Ain't nothing but a heartache
Oh, tell me why
Ain't nothing but a mistake
Tell me why
I never wanna hear you say
I want it that way

[Guitar solo]

[Chorus 2]
Don't wanna hear you say!
Ain't nothing but a heartache
Ain't nothing but a mistake
I never wanna hear you say
I want it that way
Ain't nothing but a heartache
Ain't nothing but a mistake
I never wanna hear you say
I want it that way

[Outro]
I want it that way

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
