[English]

You and I go hard at each other like we're going to war

You and I go rough, we keep throwing things and slamming the doors

You and I get so damn dysfunctional, we stopped keeping score

You and I get sick, yeah, I know that we can't do this no more

Yeah but baby, there you go again, there you go again Making me love you

Yeah, I stopped using my head, using my head Let it all go

Got you stuck on my body, on my body like a tattoo

And now I'm feeling stupid, feeling stupid crawling back to you

So I cross my heart, and I hope to die

That I'll only stay with you one more night

And I know I've said it a million times

But I'll only stay with you one more night

Try to tell you "no", but my body keeps on telling you "yes"

Try to tell you "stop", but your lipstick got me so out of breath

I'll be waking up in the morning, probably hating myself

And I'll be waking up, feeling satisfied, but guilty as hell

Yeah but baby, there you go again, there you go again Making me love you (Making me love you)

Yeah, I stopped using my head, using my head Let it all go (Let it all go)

Got you stuck on my body, on my body like a tattoo (Like a tattoo, yeah)

And now I'm feeling stupid, feeling stupid crawling back to you

So I cross my heart, and I hope to die (Yeah)

That I'll only stay with you one more night (Oh)

And I know I've said it a million times (Yeah)

But I'll only stay with you one more night (Yeah)

{Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh}

Yeah, baby, give me one more night

{Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh}

Yeah, baby, give me one more night (Whoa, yeah)

{Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh}

Yeah, baby, give me one more night

{Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh}

Oh yeah yeah

But baby, there you go again, there you go again Making me love you

Yeah, I stopped using my head, using my head Let it all go

Got you stuck on my body, on my body like a tattoo, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah

So I cross my heart, and I hope to die (Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)

That I'll only stay with you one more night (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)

And I know I've said it a million times (Oh, I've said it a million times)

But I'll only stay with you one more night (Yeah, baby, give me one more night)

So I cross my heart and I hope to die (Yeah, yeah)

That I'll only stay with you one more night (Yeah, yeah)

And I know I've said it a million times (Yeah, yeah)

But I'll only stay with you one more night (Yeah, yeah)

I dunno

Whatever, whatever
