Lyrics
Want 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.
If you want-want what you want-want, then you want it
You're better than the men I knew
When we were in a band and you
Wouldn't flinch and wouldn't make a move
Try to forget the rest
As I watch you get undressed
Pray to God this won't be a mess
And I keep runnin' away
But when I leave, you pull me in again
Oh, here we go
I hold my breath and count the times
I walked my feet up to the line
Oh, we both know
If you want-want what you want-want, then you want it
Can't hide what you desire once you're on it
Can't fake what you can't break up with, ooh
If you understand that a few years won't erase it
Might die if you can't live just to taste it
Want-want what you want-want, then you want it
And I want you, oh, ooh
Oh, can we take this slow?
Everybody's always known
But I didn't want to admit
That when we're cheek to cheek
I feel it in my teeth
And it's too good to resist
And I keep runnin' away
But when I leave, you pull me in again
Oh, we both know
If you want-want what you want-want, then you want it
Can't hide what you desire once you're on it
Can't fake what you can't break up with, ooh
If you understand that a few years won't erase it
Might die if you can't live just to taste it
Want-want what you want-want, then you want it (if you want)
If you want-want what you want-want, then you want it
Can't hide what you desire once you're on it
Can't fake what you can't break up with, ooh
If you understand that a few years won't erase it
Might die if you can't live just to taste it (if you want)
Want-want what you want-want, then you want it
Oh, and if you got a moment
I want on it, want-want on it, on it
And if you got another hour, I want all of it (if you want)
Don't wanna wait another moment
I want on it, want-want on it, on it
Don't wanna wait another hour, I want all of it
Want-want, want
