  • If you want-want what you want-want, then you want it

    You're better than the man I knew
    When we were in a band and you
    Wouldn't flinch and wouldn't make a move
    Try to forget the rest
    As I watch you get undressed
    Pray to God this won't be a mess

    And I keep runnin' away
    But when I leave, you pull me in again
    Oh, here we go
    I'll hold my breath and count the times
    I walked my feet up to the line
    Oh, we both know

    If you want-want what you want-want, then you want it
    Can't hide what you desire once you're on it
    Can't fake what you can't break up with, ooh
    If you understand that a few years won't erase it
    Might die if you can't live just to taste it
    Want-want what you want-want, then you want it

    And I want you
    Oh, ooh

    Oh, can we take this slow?
    Everybody's always known
    But I didn't want to admit
    That when we're cheek to cheek
    I feel it in my teeth
    And it's too good to resist

    And I keep runnin' away
    But when I leave, you pull me in again
    Oh, we both know

    If you want-want what you want-want, then you want it
    Can't hide what you desire once you're on it
    Can't fake what you can't break up with, ooh
    If you understand that a few years won't erase it
    Might die if you can't live just to taste it
    Want-want what you want-want, then you want it (if you want)
    If you want-want what you want-want, then you want it
    Can't hide what you desire once you're on it
    Can't fake what you can't break up with, ooh
    If you understand that a few years won't erase it
    Might die if you can't live just to taste it (if you want)
    Want-want what you want-want, then you want it

    Oh, and if you got a moment, I want on it
    Want-want on it, on it
    And if you got another hour, I want all of it
    (If you want)
    Don't wanna wait another moment, I want on it
    Want-want on it, on it
    Don't wanna wait another hour, I want all of it
    Want-want, want Writer/s: Margaret Debay Rogers, Samuel Holden Jaffe, Thomas Edward Percy Hull
