I Want You to Want Me Video (MV)




"I Want You to Want Me" is a song by the American rock band Cheap Trick. It is originally from their second album In Color, released in September 1977. It was the first single released from that album, but it did not chart in the United States in its original studio version, which was influenced by music hall styles.

Eleven months later, a more rock-oriented live version from the band's successful Cheap Trick at Budokan album was released as a single and became one of their biggest hits, peaking at number seven in the US, number two in Canada, and number one in Japan. It has since become Cheap Trick's signature song.

Cheap Trick - I Want You to Want Me Lyrics
Official




I want you to want me
I need you to need me
I'd love you to love me
I'm begging you to beg me
I want you to want me
I need you to need me
I'd love you to love me

I'll shine up my old brown shoes
I put on a brand new shirt
I get home early from work
If you say that you love me
Didn't I, didn't I, didn't I
See you cryin' (cryin', cryin')
Oh, didn't I, didn't I, didn't I
See you cryin' (cryin', cryin')

Feelin' all alone without a friend
You know you feel like dyin' (dyin', dyin')
Oh, didn't I, didn't I, didn't I
See you cryin' (cryin', cryin')

I want you to want me
I need you to need me
I'd love you to love me
I'm begging you to beg me

I'll shine up my old brown shoes
I put on a brand new shirt
I get home early from work
If you say that you love me
Didn't I, didn't I, didn't I
See you cryin' (cryin', cryin')
Oh, didn't I, didn't I, didn't I
See you cryin'

Feelin' all alone without a friend
You know you feel like dyin' (dyin', dyin')
Oh, didn't I, didn't I, didn't I
See you cryin' (cryin', cryin')

Feelin' all alone without a friend
You know you feel like dyin'
Oh, didn't I, didn't I, didn't I
See you cryin' (cryin', cryin')
Ooh

I want you to want me
I need you to need me
I'd love you to love me
I'm begging you to beg me
