CHORUS
What if it's you that I want
You that I need
Just tell me what I shoud do
So I can finally get my hands on you
-
I know you have just what it takes
To satisfy my crave
When your eyes meet mine
Something happens I can't explain
-
A sudden feeling of desire coming over me
This physical attraction knocks me off my feet
-
You seduce me
You confuse me
I'm waiting 'till you'll make your move
Don't you need me like I need you
I don't know what to do
-
CHORUS (3x)
What if it's you that I want
You that I need
Just tell me what I shoud do
So I can finally get my hands on you
-
Your lips touched mine and the ground disappeared
From underneath my feet
I never imagined our hands would fit so perfectly
-
I'm feeling kind of strange
Like nothing I've ever felt before
Could I be that much in love
It makes my body soar
-
You seduce me you
Confuse me
I'm waiting 'till you make your move
Don't you need me
Like I need you
I don't know what to do
-
CHORUS (3x)
What if it's youthat I want
You that I need




Just tell me what I should do
So I can finally get my hands on you
