I Wanna Be With You
Back 2 Bass Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And it's drivin' me insane
No matter how hard I try
To you it's all a game
I've got somethin' I wanna say
I've got somethin' I wanna do
When the sun shines
I wanna be with you
We'd better get together 'fore we're through
'Cause I got somethin' I wanna say to you
Make it easy
Because I've tried so hard to forget
But that somethin' I'll never do
'Cause when the sun shines
I wanna be with you
I haven't seen you in a week, it's true
We'd better get together 'fore we're through
'Cause I got somethin' I wanna say to you
Make it easy
Because I got somethin' I wanna say
I got somethin' I wanna do
When the sun shines
I wanna be with you
When the sun shines
I wanna be with you
When the sun shines
I wanna be with you
The lyrics to Back 2 Bass's song "I Wanna Be With You" speak to a longing to be with someone, despite mixed signals and confusion.

The singer wants to say something and do something, but it's not clear what that is. They just know that when the sun shines, they want to be with this person.
The repeated line "I haven't seen you in a week, it's true" adds a sense of urgency to the song. The singer knows that time is running out, that they need to reconnect with this person before it's too late. They want to make things easy, and yet they don't want to forget what they feel. There's a tension between wanting to move on and wanting to hold on to the hope of being with this person.
