You're the One That I Want
Noah Francis Johnson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I got chills, they're multiplyin'
And I'm losin' control
Cause the power you're supplyin'
It's electrifyin'
I better shape up
'cause you need a man
And my heart is set on you
I better shape up
You better understand
To my heart I must be true
Nothing left, nothing left for me to do

You're the one that I want
You are the one I want
you ´re what I need
Oh yes indeed

You're the one that I want
You are the one I want
you ´re what I need
Oh yes indeed

If you're filled with affection,
You're too shy to convey
Meditate in my direction,
and feel your way
I better shape up
Cause you need a man
Who can keep you, who can keep you satisfied
I better shape up
Cause you need a man
And my heart is so set on you, so set on you

You're the one that I want
You are the one I want
You´re what I need
Oh yes indeed

You're the one that I want
You are the one I need
You´re what I need
Oh yes indeed

You´re what I need

uuuuooooo

You´re what I need

uuuuuoooo
You´re what I need
Uuuuuuoooo oooooou
You´re what I need

uuuuuoooo

You´re what I need
uuuuuoooo
You´re what I need




Uuuuuoooo ooouuu
Uh uh uuuuh
