I Say What I Want
Activate Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Is it just another dream?
I say what I want
I say what I feel
I do anything
I'm gonna make it real
In our love, in another dream
Dream, back of course
Now I saw you've hurt
Looking I wanna dream at night
Love drive tonight
Now I know I want you
Could I be - be with you
Let's make a deal
Love make it real
Get crazy you are made of steel
Deep down keep on moving
Work your body
Don't stop grooving
Babe I'm in strongly dream
We are together now we have dream
Open love tonight
It's gonna be all right
We are flying like birds
Just take it on, don't make so many words
Dreaming love the dream remains
Come on babe take a chance
Make me feel - feel this way
Don't leave me until you need this day
Rock'n'roll I'm dreaming on
Catch my heart you are so strong
Wake me up, all I scream
Reality of love. I have dream
Your love is any air
Anytime and anywhere
Never ever play with me
Introduce my fantasy
Is weakness in your eyes
Don't tell me no more lies
Break my heart, break my soul
Keep ejected feelings all
Attention, hey look at me
I'm going down on my knees
Try my love I'll never stop
Make it up - boom - to the top
It's not the secret I love you
Hard times I'm going through
Lonely yet that's what I am
Still I'm hoping that you're undead

Love the '90s....best decade ever from a musical standpoint! The 21st century is supposed to be better than the previous one, yet changing something doesn't mean making it better...
