"Sugar" by Maroon 5

on my knees - when someone is on their knees, they are begging and pleading for the other person to do something (they might say this even if they really aren't physically on their knees) sympathy - 1 - feelings of pity or sorrow for someone else going through a negative experience 2- a common feeling between two people (in this song, definition 2 is used) to leave someone hanging - 1 - to not help someone in need 2 - to not answer someone's question/request (they are hanging and waiting for the answer) it's killing me - it's really difficult for me to play games - in relationships, business, or other areas, playing games means not speaking directly about the matter

December 6, 2014.

We're going to drive across LA and hit every wedding we possibly can.

It's gonna be awesome.

And we're late.

Let me get the door for you.

I'm hurting, baby,

I'm broken down,

I need your loving, loving

I need it now

When I'm without you

I'm something weak

You got me begging, begging

I'm on my knees

I don't wanna be needing your love

I just wanna be deep in your love

And it's killing me when you're away,

ooh, baby,

'Cause I really don't care where you are

I just wanna be there where you are

And I gotta get one little taste

Your sugar

Yes, please

Won't you come and put it down on me?

I'm right here,

'cause I need

Little love, a little sympathy

Yeah, you show me good loving

Make it alright

Need a little sweetness in my life

Your sugar

Yes, please

Won't you come and put it down on me?

My broken pieces

You pick them up

Don't leave me hanging, hanging

Come give me some

When I'm without ya

I'm so insecure

You are the one thing,

one thing I'm living for

I don't wanna be needing your love

I just wanna be deep in your love

And it's killing me when you're away, ooh, baby,

'Cause I really don't care where you are

I just wanna be there where you are

And I gotta get one little taste

Your sugar

Yes, please

Won't you come and put it down on me?

I'm right here,

'Cause I need

Little love, a little sympathy

Yeah, you show me good loving

Make it alright

Need a little sweetness in my life

Your sugar! sugar!

Yes, please

yes, please

Won't you come and put it down on me?

Yeah I want that red velvet

I want that sugar sweet

Don't let nobody touch it

Unless that somebody's me

I gotta be your man

There ain't no other way

'Cause girl you're hotter than a southern California day

I don't wanna play no games

You don't gotta be afraid

Don't give me all that shy shit

No make-up on

That's my Sugar

Yes, please, please

Won't you come and put it down on me, down on me?

I'm right here, right here,

'cause I need, 'cause I need

Little love, a little sympathy

So, baby, yeah you show me good loving

Make it alright

Need a little sweetness in my life

Your sugar! sugar!

Yes, please, yes, please

Won't you come and put it down on me?

Sugar

Yes, please

Won't you come and put it down on me?

I'm right here, 'cause I need

Little love, a little sympathy

Yeah, you show me good loving

Make it alright

Need a little sweetness in my life

Your sugar! sugar!

Yes, please,

yes, please

Won't you come and put it down on me?

down on me, down on me
