CEE LO GREEN lyrics : "I Want You (Hold On To Love)"

Ooohh…
Hey Hey Hey Hey…
I want you (x2)

Hey, I love the night life
Yes I do it's so much fun
And before you know it

Ah here comes the sun
Sweetheart it's been real, but
The thrill is gone

Silence is like a spirit
That picked my house to haunt
But I know it's there so I'm nonchalant

Yet deep inside I need what I want
[Chorus]
And I want you to run away with me and experience something new

Anything you've already done just won't do
I want you
And I want you to genuinely and sincerely want me too

You can believe in my baby
Don't be cruel
‘Cause I want you

Would a trip to a remote island ease your mind
Oh you look like a solitaire every sunshine
I like her 'cause she's fun

And she's fearless
She's a friend of mine
And I'm not trying to say that you need some help

Or you can have anything you want with your bad self
I like her 'cause she's smart
But she's still sexy

She is somethin' else
[Chorus]
And I want you to run away with me and experience something new

Anything you've already done just won't do
I want you
And I want you to genuinely and sincerely want me too

You can believe in my baby
Don't be cruel
‘Cause I want you

Oooh…
Oh one world to find a lady
That happens to be three times the lady

God is good
But he took his time when he designed you baby
That's why I want you

And
Oh I'll even quit my job
Lovin' you, I'll make it my job

Thank you Lord, thank you lord
This is it
My god!

That's why I want you
(Fades Out To Chorus)
