Wanting you
Nelson Eddy & Jeanette MacDonald Lyrics

My heart is aching for someone
I'm feeling an intense longing for a special person

And you are that someone
And you happen to be that person who I long for

You know the truth of my story
You understand the reality of my emotions

You must believe what you see
So you should trust in what you observe

I, too, may someday love someone
I may even come to experience love for another

From somewhere there'll come one
Someone will come from somewhere

One who will hear the same story
Someone who would listen to the very same sentiment

That you're telling me.
That you're currently conveying to me.

Wanting you, every day I am wanting you
Every single day, I deeply crave for you

Every night I am longing to
Every night, my desire to be with you intensifies

Hold you close to my eager breast
I yearn to have you close to me and feel your warmth

Wanting love, in that heaven I'm dreaming of
I aspire for love, in the paradise that I visualize

Makes that heaven seem far above
It causes that paradise to feel so distant

Any hope that I'll gain my quest
The odds of achieving my goal feel slim

Dreams are vain, but I cling to the
Although my dreams may be unrealistic, I still hold onto them

Merest chance that you may hear me
Just the slightest possibility that you might listen to me

Dreams are vain, for whenever I wake
But ultimately, my dreams are futile because whenever I wake up

I never find you near me
You're never really next to me

Wanting you, nothing else in this world will do
My longing for you is so intense that nothing else can satisfy me

In this world you are all that I adore,
In this world, you're the only one I admire

All I adore.
That's the sole thing I adore.
