Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, hoo...
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, hoo...

Like quicksand, quicksand
Pullin’ me closer
Closer in your arms
Can’t resist your lovin’ charms

You’re like quicksand
Sinkin’ me deeper in love with you

The more I fight it
The deeper in love I get
Each time you hold me
I feel nothin’ but happiness

It’s not safe lovin’ you this way
But from your arms I can’t stay

You’re like quicksand, quicksand, yeah
Pullin’ me closer
Closer, makin’ me love you, need you
It’s makin’ me deeper, deeper in love with you

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, hoo...
Deeper, deeper, deeper, love with you

My mind’s a prisoner
Of your warm embrace
I can’t help, can’t help myself
Nothin’ can take your place

When you say sweet things to me
I start tremblin’ from head to feet

You’re like quicksand, quicksand, yeah
Pullin’ me closer
Closer, I just can’t resist you, I just want to kiss you
You’re like quicksand, yeah

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, hoo...
Quicksand, baby, yeah
It’s sinkin’ me deeper, it’s sinkin’ me deeper
I just can’t resist you, I just want to kiss you

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, hoo...
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, hoo...
