Lyrics
Tell Me What You Want
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
When I look in your eyes I can see there's more than passion there
Something ugly and lovely is tuning in just behind your stare
Yeah, I've seen it before and I think that I'd know it anywhere
Chorus:
So Tell Me girl What You Want
I know you know
Grin and bare it, no no I like what you're wearing
You gotta leave it on all night
As above so below so they say so can we do the Magick [sic] right
Kiss and tell, when I know you so well there's no need to be polite
That's right
(chorus)
Take a position `cause you know I'm gonna listen to you
Tell me
Ain't no conditions, no there isn't baby ya don't have to sell me
`Cause I love you and I want you tonight
(chorus)
