I Want You
The eagle wants a canyon and a place where he can rest his wings a while
The drifter wants a freight train that will carry him another hundred miles
The lion's only lookin' for something he can sink his teeth into
Oh, and I want you
The devil wants a fella with a weakness he can wrap his arms around
The champion wants a challenger who just might have the strength to take him down
The river wants an ocean to run towards and pour its heart into
Oh, and I want you
Oh, and I want you
Oh, every time that I'm around you
Oh, I'm on fire when we touch
Oh, when I hold you, boy, you know I can't get close enough
Yes, I want you
I could cry and say I need you and tell you that I die when you're not here
I could lie and say I love you and pour a little poison in your ear
But all I'm gonna give you is nothing but the bare and naked truth, oh
Baby, I want you
Baby, I want you
The drifter wants a freight train that will carry him another hundred miles
The lion's only lookin' for something he can sink his teeth into
Oh, and I want you
The devil wants a fella with a weakness he can wrap his arms around
The champion wants a challenger who just might have the strength to take him down
The river wants an ocean to run towards and pour its heart into
Oh, and I want you
Oh, and I want you
Oh, every time that I'm around you
Oh, I'm on fire when we touch
Oh, when I hold you, boy, you know I can't get close enough
Yes, I want you
I could cry and say I need you and tell you that I die when you're not here
I could lie and say I love you and pour a little poison in your ear
But all I'm gonna give you is nothing but the bare and naked truth, oh
Baby, I want you
Baby, I want you
