Composers:	Lewis/Lewis

I thought it was infatuation
I couldn't find the bridges behind me
Here today and gone tomorrow
Never thinking loving wouldn't find me

Now my fee is love, I'm after
My courts show the walls of disaster

'Cause love is like quicksand
I'm sinking deeper and deeper baby
But the mountain of my mistakes
Is looking steeper and steeper

I would solve when it came to loving
Then it was a case of taking or leaving
So I crossed it off as usual
Your love came, I couldn't believe it

So like a child who plays with fire
I'm going after my own desire

'Cause love is like quicksand
I'm sinking deeper and deeper baby
But the mountain of my mistakes
Is looking steeper and steeper

Can't you see I'm sinking baby?
Come on help me now, help me now
Come on help me now, help me now

This is more than just flirtations
Sure it's not a hopeless situation

'Cause love is like quicksand
I'm sinking deeper and deeper baby
But the mountain of my mistakes
Is looking steeper and steeper

Love is like quicksand
I'm sinking deeper and deeper baby
But the mountain of my mistakes
Is looking steeper and steeper

Love is like quicksand
I'm sinking deeper and deeper baby
But the mountain of my mistakes
Is looking steeper and steeper

Love is like quicksand
I'm sinking deeper and deeper baby
But the mountain of my mistakes
Is looking steeper and steeper, baby
