[English]

I knew from the first night

And I haven't been the same since

'Cause when we kiss, it's like (it's like)

Cherry licorice on my lips

I start to hear music

That I haven't heard before

Don't know how you do this (do this)

But I know how to love some more (more)

So kiss me some more

You taste just like sugar, my sugar, sugar high

I like it, but I shouldn't, so good that I could die

And, oh my God, the sweet paradise with you by my side

Oh, baby, say you'll be mine

My sugar, my sugar, sugar high

I like it, but I shouldn't, so good that I could die

And, oh my God, the sweet paradise with you by my side

Oh, baby, say you'll be mine

My sugar

My mama said, "Careful" (careful)

"Too much honey makes you lovesick"

I said, "If you say so"

But I can't stop thinking 'bout him

I start to hear music (music)

That I haven't heard before

Don't know how you do it

But I know how to love some more (more)

So kiss me some more

You taste just like sugar, my sugar, sugar high

I like it, but I shouldn't, so good that I could die

And, oh my God, the sweet paradise with you by my side

Oh, baby, say you'll be mine

My sugar, my sugar, sugar high (my sugar)

I like it, but I shouldn't, so good that I could die (I could die)

And, oh my God, the sweet paradise with you by my side

Oh, baby, say you'll be mine

My sugar

'Cause every time you leave, you know I miss your face

'Cause I love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, babe

I'm whipping cotton candy clouds with you for days

Baby, it's not that bad to crave

Sugar, my sugar, sugar high

I like it, but I shouldn't, so good that I could die (I could die)

And, oh my God, the sweet paradise with you by my side

Oh, baby, say you'll be mine

My sugar, su-sugar, sugar high

I like it, but I shouldn't, so good that I could die

And, oh my God, the sweet paradise with you by my side

Oh, baby, say you'll be mine

My sugar
