I Still Want You

lyrics

I STILL WANT YOU

I DIDN’T SHED A TEAR LAST NIGHT
HOW FORTUNATE YOU CALLED AT LAST
ARE YOU THROUGH NOW BEING MAD?
OR DO YOU JUST WANT TO PASS THE TIME?
YOUR SECOND BUNCH OF ROSES CAME
YESTERDAY WHILE I WAS AWAY
DOES IT MEAN WHAT I THINK YOU’RE TRYING TO SAY
OR ARE YOU STILL JUST FUCKING AROUND?
BECAUSE I KNOW YOU ARE A LOTTERY
AND SOMETIMES I’M LUCKY AND I PLAY FOR FREE
BUT I GUESS I KNOW THERE IS AN EQUAL CHANCE
I’LL BE GETTING A BILL WITH A PHOTOGRAPH

CHORUS:
BUT I STILL WANT YOU EVEN AFTER ALL THIS TIME
I STILL WANT YOU

TOO TIGHTLY STRETCHED, TOO TIGHTLY WOUND
HAPPY SOMETIMES, MEAN WHEN YOU DOWN
TWISTED INSIDE JUST A RUSTED OLD SPRING
TIME BOMB TICKING, CAN’T SAY A THING
DANGER SUCH PASSION, DANGER THIS CAUTION
ICE AND THEN FIRE, DANGER NO MATTER

CHORUS:
BUT I STILL WANT YOU EVEN AFTER ALL THIS TIME
I STILL WANT YOU, I CAN’T HELP MYSELF
YOU’RE WHAT I NEED, LIFE IT SEEMS
BUT WON’T YOU SAY THE SAME THING?
SAY THE SAME THING PLEASE

I COULD FALL, START TO COMPLAIN
PULL MY HAIR, I’VE GOT A CASE
BUT MAYBE FOR ME AND BETTER FOR YOU
I KEEP ON THINKING DREAMS COME TRUE
SO OK YES, I’M READY TO GO
YOU’VE MADE YOUR POINT, WHAT’S ONE MORE?
I’M STILL THE ONE WAITING FOR YOU
I’M STILL STANDING WHAT MORE CAN I PROVE?

CHORUS

(DADF#AD)
