From the recording Somethin'
Lyrics
I Wanna Love You
Heard you were feeling blue
Since you lost your girl
Heard they got you good
With the rumor whirl
All the fuss and fight
For the same end game
Now you’re leaning on me
But I feel the same
All those sleepless nights
Cause she ain’t been true
Seen with blinded eyes
How I’m breaking for you
Wish I could mend your heart
Make you truly see
I got the lovin’ you need
Chorus:
Cause I wanna love you (3x)
So baby be mine
(2x thru)
Time has staggered on
I’ve been a girl on hold
Cause all the drama and tears
Have been a heavy load
As you’re packing up
Just keep an eye on me
I’m everything you could want
And everything that you need
I’ve been a shelter for you
Cause I got love to spare
Been the hand that you hold
When nobody was there
I’ve helped to mend your heart
And yet you’ve never seen
I got the lovin’ you need
Chorus
Bridge:
A story old as time
Wanting you whenever you are around
Let me give me love to you
You’ll never worry that I’ll let you down
into the chorus
