Lyrics:--

I wanna girl who always has the time
To set my world & count the stars above
I want a girl
I wanna girl who still believes in love
Someone who's sensitive enough
I want a girl
Oh I wanna girl that I can really trust
Someone who's patient & who'll love me when it's rough
I want a girl
I wanna girl as smart as she is fine
Someone that I can say is mine

This girl I'm describing really does exist
Baby have you noticed

I want a girl like you
To be with me tonight
I wanna kiss your lips & hold you close
If thats alright
I want a girl like you
To keep me feeling new
I wanna make the words you say the most
"I love you"
And your love is all I'll ever need

I want a girl
A girl that makes me laugh
I want her sentimental
And to be my better half
I wanna girl like the one my father loves
And that's the one I'm dreaming of

Only one girl lives up to what's on my list
So you need to know this

I want a girl like you
To be with me tonight
I wanna kiss your lips & hold you close
If thats alright
I want a girl like you
To keep me feeling new
I wanna make the words you say the most

And your love is all I'll ever need

I want a girl like you

I wanna kiss your lips & hold you close
If thats alright
I want a girl like you
To keep me new
I wanna make the words you say the most
"I love you"
And your love is all I'll ever need

"This should be played at high volume
Preferably in a residential area"

Only one girl lives up to what's on my list
So you need to know this baby

I want a girl if that's alright
I want a girl to hold me tight
I want ya baby if that's alright with you
I want a girl just like you

There should be a movie made after him. He was put in orphanages as a child, then lived in homeless shelters, then was literally discovered on the streets by his manager. Sang for him and then got a record deal.

@shianew.119

We grew up together and yes, his story is a true testimony of strength.

@user-cw4nl5og1v

Wasn't he the guy on the movie "Never Been Kissed" who kept going around saying 'Rufus'?

@Rich_Daniel78

I MISS MTV with all my heart. 😢🙂 Videos like this only shows that the 90s are soooo missed. ✌️

@eaglechildkeys

80s and 90's music was so fresh and catchy...

@JennaLeigh

I had this CASSETTE! And omg I loved this song so much. Memories 😍😍😍😍

And that harmony 🎶and your love is all I'll ever need....🎵😍😍💖🖤

@brianonlinenl

In case anyone is wondering; The original version of this is by Trey Lorenz. It was released as a B-side on the European versions of his single "Someone To Hold" in 1992. Jeremy's version wasn't released until 1993. Both versions were written, arranged and produced by Keith Thomas. For the Jeremy version, they actually kept most of Trey's background harmonies in (You can clearly hear him in the verses on the "I Want A Girl" parts) but added backings by Audrey Wheeler, Chris Rodriguez, Cindy Mizelle and Emanuel Officer. Both versions are almost identical productionwise, but the Jeremy version features an extra breakdown and extra / different vocal arrangement starting at the 3:15 mark. Both versions are great!

@IRON5

brianonlinenl You know what now I know why I liked this joint so much and vocals always sounded familiar

@ashleypello7532

I still feel like Jeremy brought it more than Trey in the hooks just my opinion.
