Want You
Cesare feat. River Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Do me a favor
Scratch me from your list
Cos I ain't been no savior
And I know we can't resist
And you know it will be fine
When you leave it all behind
Baby tell me what you want
Baby tell me what you need
Baby tell me what you want
Baby tell me what you need
Tomorrow's another day
But I'll be on my way
The time has come to part again
But there will be no pain
Cos it was written in the sky
So there's really no need to cry
Baby tell me what you want
Baby tell me what you need
Baby tell me what you want
Baby tell me what you need
Oh oh oh
Do me a favor
Take me out of your list
Cos I ain't been no savior
And I know we can't resist
And you know it will be fine
When you leave it all behind
Oh oh oh
Baby tell me what you want
Baby tell me what you need
Baby tell me what you want
Baby tell me what you need
First you tell me what you want
Then you tell me what you need




First you tell me what you want
And then you tell me what you need
