I Love You You Imbecile
Pelle Carlberg Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I love the way you talk
I love the way you stalk
me with your mobile phone
I love the way you smile
The way you're juvenile
I love the way you moan

I can live with vanity and puns
and the morning temper runs
I can live with all your downsides
I can live with you high

All I want, all I need
All I want is you
I can live with all the stupid things you do

I love the way you dress
the way you make a mess
and that you're always late
I love the way you smell
and I can always tell
when you exaggerate

I can live with vanity and puns
and the morning temper runs
I can live with all your downsides
I can live with you high

All I want, all I need
All I want, all I need
All I want, all I need





All I want is you
I can live with all the stupid things you do.
