elvis costello – i want you lyrics

Loading...

oh my baby, baby, i love you more than i can tell
i don’t think i can live without you and i know that i never will
oh my baby, baby, i want you so it scares me to death
i can’t say anymore than i love you, everything else is a waste of breath

i want you, you’ve had your fun, you don’t get well no more
i want you, your fingernails go dragging down the wall
be careful, darling, you might fall

i want you, i woke up and one of us was crying
i want you, you said, “young man, i do believe you’re dying”
i want you, if you need a second opinion as you seem to do these days
i want you, you can look in my eyes and you can count the ways

i want you, did you mean to tell me but seem to forget?
i want you, since when were you so generous and inarticulate?
i want you, it’s the stupid details that my heart is breaking for
it’s the way your shoulders shake and what they’re shaking for

i want you, it’s knowing that he knows you now after only guessing
it’s the thought of him undressing you or you undressing
i want you, he tossed some tattered compliment your way
i want you and you were fool enough to love it when he said, “i want you”

i want you, the truth can’t hurt you, it’s just like the dark
it scares you witless but in time you see things clear and stark
i want you, go on and hurt me then we’ll let it drop
i want you, i’m afraid i won’t know where to stop

i want you, i’m not ashamed to say, “i cried for you”
i want you, i want to know the things you did that we do too
i want you, i want to hear he pleases you more than i do
i want you, i might as well be useless for all it means to you

i want you, did you call his name out as he held you down?
i want you, oh no, my darling, not with that clown, i want you
i want you, you’ve had your fun, you don’t get well no more
i want you, no one who wants you could want you more

i want you
i want you

i want you, every night when i go off to bed and when i wake up
i want you, i’m going to say it once again ’til i instill it
i am goin’, goin’ feel this way until you kill it

i want you
i want you
i want you
