I Want You
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.
First I was thinking that you're ok.
Then I was thinking you're far away.
Though how I might like to get to know you better.
I just got to got to get to know you mmm much much better!
I want you!
Made up my mind and I made my plans.
I'm onto you like a hardcore fan.
I got trackers and lookouts, electronic scanners.
Got you on my mind and it's mind over manners.
I've got the inside news.
I've got the latest point of view.
I'm looking to pursue any stories that I hear of you.
Packing my bag and I'm playing my hand.
He looks to me like the promised man.
Got no time for poses.
Set my explosives.
I'm gunning for you, I got power packed motives.
