“Sugar”

By Robin Schulz
Featuring Francesco Yates

She's got cherry lips
Angel eyes
She knows exactly
How to tantalize
She's out to get you
Danger by design
Cold blooded vixen
She don't compromise

She's something mystical
In colored lights
So far from typical
But take my advice
Before you play with fire
Do think twice
And if you get burned
Don't be surprised

Chorus

Got me lifted, drifted
Higher than the ceiling
And oh baby
It's the ultimate feeling
You've got me lifted
Feeling so gifted
Sugar how you get so fly

Sugar how you get so fly
Well sugar how you get so fly

Sweet talking lady
Love how you entice
Sugar with just the right amount of spice
Charming alluring everyone's desire
She's out to get you
You can't run, you can't hide

(Chorus)
