Berikut lirik lagu sideways:

[Verse 1]

You're so revealing

You're here but you're not tonight

Your eyes on the ceiling

Your body away from mine

[Pre-Chorus]

Yeah, you play games with love (Oh)

Yeah, you play games with love until it's gone

You never get enough (Oh)

You never get enough of what you want

[Chorus]

I miss lookin' at you sideways

Face-to-face with your lips on mine

And our legs on the pillowcase

Sideways, late at night with your love lying next to mine

I miss lookin' at you sideways, sideways, sideways (Miss lookin', miss lookin')

I miss lookin' at you sidеways, sideways, yeah

[Verse 2]

It must be appеaling

To twist me up like you do

Then dangle your words like diamonds

They cut me, but I see through

[Pre-Chorus]

Yeah, you play games with love (Oh)

Yeah, you play games with love until it's gone (No, no, no, until it's gone)

You never get enough (Oh)

You never get enough of what you want

[Chorus]

I miss lookin' at you sideways

Face-to-face with your lips on mine

And our legs on the pillowcase

Sideways late at night with your love lying next to mine

I miss lookin' at you sideways, sideways, sideways (Miss lookin', miss lookin')

I miss lookin' at you sideways, sideways, yeah

[Bridge]

'Cause it hurts me to watch you leave (You leave)

And it hurts me to watch you stay

And I know what it's gonna be

But I just wanna stay sideways

[Chorus]

I miss lookin' at you sideways

Face-to-face with your lips on mine

And our legs on the pillowcase

Sideways, late at night with your love lying next to mine

I miss lookin' at you sideways, sideways, sideways (Sideways)

I miss lookin' at you sideways, sideways, yeah (Sideways)

I miss lookin' at you sideways

Face-to-face with your lips on mine

And our legs on the pillowcase (Miss lookin', miss lookin')

Sideways, late at night with your love lying next to mine

I miss lookin' at you sideways, sideways, sideways

I miss lookin' at you sideways, sideways, yeah
