Pensées furtives et autres inepties

My baby baby I want you so it scares me to death

I can't say anymore than "I love you"

Everything else is a waste of breath

I want you

You've had your fun you don't get well no more

I want you

Your fingernails go dragging down the wall

I want you

I woke up and one of us was crying

I want you

You said "little girl I do believe you're dying"

I want you

If you need a second opinion as you seem to do these days

You can look in my eyes and you can count the ways

I want you

I want you

Did you mean to tell me but seem to forget

I want you

Since when were you so generously inarticulate

I want you

It's the stupid details that my heart is breaking for

It's the way your shoulders shake and what they're shaking for

It's knowing that she knows you now after only guessing

It's the thought of her undressing you or you undressing

She tossed some tattered compliment your way

I want you

And you were fool enough to love it when she said "I want you"

"I want you"

I want you

The truth can't hurt you it's just like the dark

It scares you witless

But in time you see things clear and stark

I want you

Go on and hurt me then we'll let it drop

I want you I'm afraid I won't know where to stop

I'm not ashamed to say I cried for you

I want you

I want you

I might as well be useless for all it means to you

I want you

You've had your fun you don't get well no more

I want you

No-one else wants you could want you more

I want you

Every night when I go off to bed

And when I wake up

I want you

I want you

I'm going to say it once again 'til I instill it

I know I'm going to feel this way until you kill it
