  • Oh, oh
    You say you can't stand to be
    Tied so close to a lover
    Yeah ooh you feel like a prisoner
    And you want to find someone who will let you out
    Can't you see the heartbeat that you know so well
    Is better than some strange one you're looking for
    Say you never know that strange one just might be me yeah

    Can't you see
    (You Have Everything Your Heart Desires)
    So why you want more
    If you have (If You Have Everything Your Heart Desired
    Would you still want more
    You (Have Everything Your Heart Desires)
    Why do you want more
    (If you Have Everything Your Heart Desires)
    Desired, would you still want more

    You tell me your best friend's world seem beautiful
    but don't be fooled
    It's nice work if you can get it
    Yeah, what goes on behind closed doors you don't know
    Maybe she cries herself to sleep every night
    Sorry that the heartbeat that she knows so well
    Ain't what she's looking for
    You never know that strange heart just might be me

    Maybe (You Have Everything Your Heart Desires)
    So why you want more
    If you had
    (If you had everything your heart desired)
    Would you still want more
    (You Have Everything Your Heart Desires)
    Desired, why do you want more
    (If you have Everything Your Heart Desires)

    Maybe you'll confess
    Girl you'll see (no)
    If you want the world, if you want the world
    Think of me
    No words can help
    So don't be sad oh no
    'Cause baby what you want is what you have hey, hey

    Do you still love me?
    Hey, (You Have Everything Your Heart Desires)
    Everything your heart desires
    So why you want more
    (If You Have Everything Your Heart Desires)
    I can give you anything you want
    (You Have Everything Your Heart Desires)
    As long as you know you got to me
    You got the key to me
    (If You Have Everything Your Heart Desires)
