Mike Key - Waterfall

MoBlack, Gruwski, LevyM - Sweet Reminder

You came on smooth, like whiskey slow,
Said all the right things low.
Showed the kind of sweetness
That makes a tooth ache grow
Your touch was fine liquor,
But the aftertaste told the truth —
Some sugar turns bitter
When it no longer soothes.

I may want you, baby,
But that don’t make you mine.
You shine like a promise,
But you sting like moonshine.
Yeah, you’re pretty as trouble,
But my heart’s learned to see —
Between the wanting and the needing,
Only one lets you breathe.

You whispered midnight poetry,
But your words were made of lies.
You had that preacher rhythm,
But no gospel in your eyes.
You moved like thunder rolling,
And I wanted to be rain.
But I won’t sell my peace
To feel that kind of pain.

I may want you, baby,
But that don’t make you mine.
You shine like a promise,
But you sting like salt and lime
Yeah, you sing in the wrong key,
And my heart’s learned to see —
Between the wanting and the needing,
Only one sets you free.

Now the morning’s clear and quiet,
No cologne smell in these sheets.
The air feels clean again,
Like a sinner’s found release.
You were heat and danger,
And I won’t curse your flame —
But I’ve seen how it ends,
And I won’t play that game.

I may want you, baby,
But that don’t make you mine.
You shine like a promise,
But you sting like sea brine.
Yeah, I’ve walked through your fire,
But I still believe —
Between the wanting and the needing,
I found what’s left of me.
