The Way I 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.
Only in the time when you wake up in the day
Only in the time when you lost your way
Walking all around and you find me by the bay
Waiting for your sign in the beaches sand
Want me when you're wound up, drink me like a shot
Love me like a woman, hold me like a cup
I could be your thing when you wake up in a dream
When you've messed up, little babe
When you've worked all day
How could I tell?
How would I know?
Never give up, I don't let go
Walk in the wind, nowhere to go
Walk in the wind, nowhere to go
How could I tell?
How would I know?
Never give up, I don't let go
Walk in the wind, nowhere to go
Walk in the wind, nowhere to go
If you wonder why
I'm just living life the way I want (huh)
The way I want, the way I want
If you wonder why
I'm just living life the way I want (huh)
The way I want, it's the way I
Only what is shining, I'll pick up and I'll play
Anything you pay for will go away
Something I can pray for, something I could love
Looking at the rainbow to see the gold
Want me when you're would up, bite me like a shark
Love me like a woman, hold me like a God
I could be your thing when you wake up in a dream
When you've messed up, little babe
When you've worked all day
How could I tell, how would I know
Why do you say "I told you so" ?
Walk in the wind, nowhere to go
Walk in the wind, nowhere to go
If you wonder why
I'm just living life the way I want (huh)
The way I want, the way I want
If you wonder why
I'm just living life the way I want (huh)
The way I want, it's the way I
If you wonder why
I'm just living life the way
I want (this is the way I want)
The way I want, the way I want
If you wonder why
I'm just living life the way
I want (this is the way I want)
It's the way I want
And when all the lights off and everybody goes home
Wherever I go, I won't be alone
It never pulls off and it never goes wrong
Whatever I do is the way I want
The way I want, the way I want
The way I want, it's the way I want
If you wonder why
I'm just living life the way I want (huh)
The way I want, the way I want
If you wonder why
I'm just living life the way I want (huh)
The way I want, it's the way I
If you wonder why
I'm just living life the way
I want (this is the way I want)
The way I want, the way I want
If you wonder why
I'm just living life the way
I want (this is the way I want)
The way I want, it's the way I want
