"mariah" lyrics

"mariah"

I was a pessimist just tryin' to be an optimist
Out in the world and I knew I wouldn't quit
The day we met I had a feeling, had to follow it
Your love is a pill, I had to swallow it

Ooh, lovin' your hands, I'm movin' way too slow
Too, too slow
Mmm-mmm-mmm

Ooh, wherever you go, you know I'll follow
'Cause these days all I'm listenin' to is old Mariah
Ever since you came into my life
Baby, you sent me a rumor
Then your life changed me
All that I know is I know
I can't go back to the way that I was

I was a lone wolf
Trying to fill a page
With ideas and people that didn't feel the same
Somehow I knew you would
By the way you glance
Straight into my soul
I stood no chance

Ooh, loving your hands, I'm moving way too slow
Too, too slow
Mmm-mmm-mmm

Ooh, wherever you go, you know I'll follow
'Cause these days all I'm listenin' to is old Mariah
Ever since you came into my life
Baby, you sent me a rumor
Then your life changed me
All that I know is I know
I can't go back to the way that I was
Darlin', ever since you came into my life
Baby, you sent me a rumor
Then your life changed me
All that I know is I know
I can't go back to the way that I was

Whoo
Whoa, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, whoa-ooh-ooh
Whoa, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Whoa, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh

'Cause these days all I'm listenin' to is old Mariah
Ever since you came into my life
Baby, you sent me a rumor
Then your life changed me
All that I know is I know
I can't go back to the way that I was
Darlin', ever since you came into my life
Baby, you sent me a rumor
Then your life changed me
All that I know is I know
I can't go back to the way that I was
