Wanna Be Yours
Lil Eddie Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Still smiling from yesterday
I just woke up and the first thought on my brain,
Is you and now I can't wait to see your lovely face
I would do whatever it takes to look into your eyes again
If only you knew..

Days keep on turning into nights, wish I
Could go 'head and say it

'cuhz it's burning deep inside to know
I wanna be yours baby
See, nothing could get better than if we were together,
I just can't take this
I wanna be, wanna be yours

So close but so far away
I won't be satisfied 'til I have my cake
And eat it too with love
With you I'll share a taste
Not a single crumb I'll waste
It's getting harder to contain these feelings of you
I'm thinking,
You sweep me off the ground into a whirl wind
When you come around me something in me changes
I can't explain it baby I'm [?]
If only you knew..

Days keep on turning into nights, wish I
Could go 'head and say it
'cuhz it's burning deep inside to know

I wanna be yours baby
See, nothing could get better than if we were together,
I just can't take this
I wanna be, wanna be yours

I'm falling so in love
Friendship is not enough
It's hard to bare
'cuhz when you care the way that I do
You gotta be
The one to claims your name around
Talks about you all over town
If i could just be your girl
If only you knew
If only you knew (yeah)
If only you knew

Days keep on turning into nights, wish I
Could go 'head and say it
'cuhz it's burning deep inside to know
I wanna be yours baby
See, nothing could get better than if we were together,
I just can't take this
I wanna be, wanna be yours..
