I Want You
Bad Boy Joe Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When nothing turns out the way I planned.
When the sky turns grey and there's no end in sight.
When I can't sleep through the lonely night.
I turn to you. Like a flower leaning toward the sun.
I turn to you. 'Cos you're the only one.
Who can turn me around when I'm upside down.
When my insides are wracked with anxiety.
You have the touch that will quiet me.
You lift my spirit. You melt the ice.
When I need inspiration, when I need advice.
I turn to you. Like a flower leaning toward the sun.
I turn to you. 'Cos you're the only one.
Who can turn me around when I'm upside down.
I turn to you.
Where would I be? What would I do?
If you'd never helped me through.
I hope someday if you've lost your way.
You could turn to me like I turn to you.
I turn to you. Like a flower leaning toward the sun.
I turn to you. 'Cos you're the only one.
Who can turn me around when I'm upside down.
I turn to you.
I turn to you. When fear tells me to turn around.
I turn to you. 'Cos you're the only one.
Who can turn me around when I'm upside down.
I turn to you. I turn to you. I turn to you.

He asks her where they go from here and says that he's been thinking about her and sees her everywhere.
The singer seems to be deeply in love with the girl and wants her to be with him. He is expressing his feelings and is asking for her love in return.

Don't misunderstand me 'cause I want you
I hope you don't misinterpret my intentions, because I desire you
I see you on the floor baby, I want you
I'm noticing you dancing and I am attracted to you
Baby stop where you're standing
Please halt in your current position
I need to talk to you
I want to have a conversation with you
Last night was really crazy
Our previous encounter was quite wild
And I want to make it up to you
I would like to apologize and reconcile with you
And I, I didn't realize
I wasn't aware
That I meant anything to you
That I held any significance in your eyes
But now that I know your feelings
But now that I understand how you feel
I need to get it through to you
I must make you understand
I want you to want me too, like I want you
I desire for you to have the same level of attraction towards me
Tell me girl, where do we go from here
Can you inform me of our next steps in this relationship?
I've been thinkin' 'bout you and I see you everywhere
I have been pondering about you and you appear frequently in my thoughts
And I'd be real surprised
It would be unexpected
If I got to see you in the new morning
If I had the opportunity to encounter you tomorrow
I swear, the feeling I get from you
I promise, the emotions you evoke in me
Makes it so damn hard to forget about the things you do
Make it incredibly challenging for me to move on from your actions
You seem to think it's cool
You appear to believe it is acceptable
To walk away from me, to misunderstand me girl
To retreat from our relationship, to misinterpret my intentions
Let me dance with you baby
Permit me to dance alongside you
Want you be my lady
Desire for you to be my significant other
I want you
I crave you
