Okay, I wanna get back
can't let you get around inside my head now
I wanna get back, can't sit through another round
Okay, I wanna get back
can't let you get around inside my head now
I wanna get back, can't sit through another round
It's hot in New York and I can't get away from pain
I'm losing my nerves, and you're losing the way to game
I know it ain't true
the things we say and do to play it cool
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

Okay, do you really wanna do the old way?
Not today, 'cause I can't feel the things
that make me feel so hopeful
And I don't know what you're doing, but I'm not tempted
And I just write now 'cause I'm on empty

Okay, I wanna get back
can't let you get around inside my head now
I wanna get back, can't sit through another round
Okay, I wanna get back
can't let you get around inside my head now
I wanna get back, can't sit through another round
It's hot in New York and I can't get away from pain
I'm losing my nerves, and you're losing the way to game
I know it ain't true
the things we say and do to play it cool
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
