I Want You Lyrics

You sat down next to me, like poetry to wine

 Out window looked upon a yellow neon sign

 I took your hand while you decided what to do

 The only kiss, I ever miss, I shared with you

 The other cities hold a memory still of a place

 But, when I dream of London, I can only see your face

 

 I want you

 Or no one

 No one else will do

 You, or no one

 No one is the only one

 To fill the empty space I hold for you

 

 You simplified me down to slogans on the wall

 I took offense, but you were right about them all

 My friends are telling me I shouldn't waste my time

 But I can't concentrate until I make you mine

 I'm drawing cards and making wishes down by the well

 Who would've known I'd lose myself in that old hotel

 

 I want you

 Or no one

 No one else for me

 You, or no one

 'Cause no one else is strong enough, strong enough

 To slow me down in time to set me free

 I want you

 Or no one else

 No one else is fine

 Oh, you, or no one

 No one is the only one

 To fill me up until I make you mine
