I Like It That Way - Melissa Ferrick, Ferrick, Melissa

Who knows if it’ll work this time

Yeah but you said you were willing

To give it a try

And who knows if I will just stay in the back

Can’t you see that I’m holding on here to a heart attack

Yeah but when my breath goes and my knees ache

You can be sure that there’s rain comin' and I

Like it that way

I like it that way

I like it that way

Yeah but I’m a storyteller

But I’m the worst kind

Cause I’m the kind that makes you believe in love

Yeah I’m the kind that sits back patiently

Just waiting for the kill

You know that I’m the girl in the corner

And I’m holding your eyes still

But I like it that way

I like it that way

I like it that way, yeah

Yeah, I like it that way

Hey, but it’s my cross to bear

And my cross to carry

So I’m gonna leave it there

Baby, at the bottom of the stairs

And I’m gonna get it later

When it’s more convenient and when I’m a little

Less conceited

And I have got time to spare

Oh, when I have got time to spare

But I like it that way, yeah

I like it that way, yeah

Who knows if it’ll work this time

Yeah but you said that you were willin

To give me a try

And I like it that way

Yeah, I like it that way
