Want You
Xana Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

How did we get to this feeling I'm feeling
How did this open up after the healing
Flaws all exposed when I thought they could fade
Wounds are exposed in so many ways
I thought that love was in the clouds
You pick me up then pull me down
I call you my own when you're not even home
You call me your own but we're not home
I don't need you when I fuck ya
Need you when you touch me, I just want you to myself
I don't need you when I fuck ya
Need you when you touch me, I just want you to myself
You could say I love ya
I can't get enough boy I just want you to myself
I don't need you when I fuck ya
Need you when you touch me, I just want you to myself
I'm searching too much for something to fill this
But it ain't enough to keep me from breaking down again
I need you to hold me down again and again
I need you to hold me down
I thought that love was in the clouds
You pick me up then pull me down
I call you my own when you're not even home
You call me your own but we're not home
I don't need you when I fuck ya
Need you when you touch me, I just want you to myself
I don't need you when I fuck ya
Need you when you touch me, I just want you to myself
You could say I love ya
I can't get enough boy I just want you to myself




I don't need you when I fuck ya
Need you when you touch me, I just want you to myself
