I Want A Lover

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.

At this time of night, when the crowds have passed

We're the last to leave, we need some company

No need to look so shy, don't even wonder why

You know the reason that we need this company

I've been sitting here, looking out for you

Someone just like me, who's maybe had a drink or two

I don't want another drink or fight

I want a lover

I don't care whether it's wrong or right

I want a lover tonight

Tonight

Outside the dawn is breaking, looks like it's started raining

We'll catch a cab, and soon be driving home

No need to look so shy, don't even wonder why

You'll know the reason just as soon as we get home

You've been sitting there, wondering what to do

I've been standing here, waiting to make the first move

Ahaha

I don't want another drink or fight

I want a lover

I don't care whether it's wrong or right

I want a lover tonight (Tonight)

I don't want another drink or fight

I want a lover

I don't care whether it's wrong or right

I want a lover tonight

Tonight

This anticipation is a stimulation

No need for conversation as we're driving home

Put your arms around me, it doesn't mean you love me

Just that you want me and you need my company

Driving through the night, it's so exciting

Turning off the light without another thought tonight

Ahaha

I don't want another drink or fight

I want a lover

I don't care whether it's wrong or right

I want a lover tonight (I want a lover tonight)

I don't want another drink or fight

I want a lover

I don't care whether it's wrong or right

I want a lover tonight

Tonight

(I want you, I want your love) - I want a lover

(I want you, I want your love) - I want a lover

(I want you, I want your love) - I want a lover (I want your love tonight)

Oooh
