I Want You

from Handsome - Album 2 by Jamie Lawrence

lyrics

I want you
I can't have you
And all the while life gives me other choices
I won't take
'cuz all the while your body is my bait.

I want you
I can't have you
and though I know I said I'd be your friend
I can't fake the strength it takes to stay so far away.

No way, no it's not fair
now anywhere we go
it's just me and another man I used to know.

I want you
I can't have you
and so I sit alone instead and rhyme,
all reason's leaving me this time.
No mind, no it's not fair
now anywhere I go
it's just me and another man I used to know.

Open wide, 'cuz I still love you.
Open wide,
I'm trying to climb my way back inside.
'Cuz I still love you.
I still want you.
Even though you're just a man I used know.

So I want you, I want you
I want you each and every day to define
what kind of love gets better left behind?

No, mind, no it's not fair now anywhere we go
it's just me and another man I used to know.

Open wide, and I sitll love you
(open wide)
I still want you
(open wide)
I still love you
(open wide)
I still want you

Even though you're just the man I used to know.
