Ooh
Hey, hey, hey, hey
I want you
I want you
Hey, I love the night life
Yes I do, it's so much fun
And before you know it
Ah, here comes the Sun
Sweetheart, it's been real, but
The thrill is gone
Silence is like a spirt
That picked my house to haunt
But I know it's there so I'm nonchalant
Yet deep inside I need what I want
And I want you to run away with me
And experience something new
Anything you've already done just won't do
I want you
Would a trip to a remoted island ease your mind
Oh you look like a solitaire every sunshine
I like her 'cause she's fun
And she's fearless
She's a friend of mine
And I'm not trying to say that you need some help
Or you can have anything you want with your bad self
I like her 'cause she's smart
But she's still sexy
She is somethin' else
That's why I want you to run away with me
And experience something new
Anything you've already done just won't do
I want you
And I want you
To genuinely and sincerely want me too
You can believe in me, baby, don't be cruel
'Cause I want you
Ooh
Oh one world to find a lady
That happens to be three times the lady
God is good
But he took his time when he designed you baby
That's why I want you
And I want you to run away with me
And experience something new
Anything you've already done just won't do
I want you
And I want you
To genuinely and sincerely want me too
You can believe in me, baby, don't be cruel
'Cause I want you
