I Want You

	  		 

E   A      E 
My baby baby 
E                       B  
I want you so it scares me to death 
E               A     E 
I can't say anymore than "I love you" 
E              B               
Everything else is a waste of breath

Am       C 
I want you

You've had your fun you don't get well no more 
Am       C 
I want you 
F                     E 
Your fingernails go dragging down the wall 

I want you 
I woke up and one of us was crying 
I want you 
You said "little girl I do believe you're dying" 
I want you 
If you need a second opinion as you seem to do these days 
You can look in my eyes and you can count the ways 
I want you 
I want you 
Did you mean to tell me but seem to forget 
I want you 
Since when were you so generously 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 
It's knowing that she knows you now after only guessing 
It's the thought of her undressing you or you undressing 
She tossed some tattered compliment your way 
I want you 
And you were fool enough to love it when she said 
"I want you" 
"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'm not ashamed to say I cried for you 
I want you 

I want you 
I might as well be useless for all it means to you 
I want you 
You've had your fun you don't get well no more 
I want you 
No-one else wants you could want you more 
I want you 
Every night when I go off to bed 
And when I wake up 
I want you 

I want you 
I'm going to say it once again 'til I instill it 
I know I'm going to feel this way until you kill it
