Jim Johnston - I Know What I Want Lyrics

Words and music: jim johnston



Is there somebody watching out for you?

Because I dont really have that much to do.

I no longer remember, a girl I could not forget

Once she filled me with wonder,

Now Im not filled with anything -except with regrets cause I am young!

I know what I want, do you know what you need - yet?

Thats what Im standing here for.

Youre in every thought, and the air that I breathe,

You dont have to be lonely anymore.

Please dont be alarmed by what you see,

Im just a shadow of someone I could be,

They say hope springs eternal, thats just too long to wait

Your love could be the answer, I want more than anything

Before its too late while Im still young!

I know what I want, do you know what you need - yet?

Thats what Im standing here for.

Youre in every thought, and the air that I breathe

And I dont want to be lonely anymore.

If you dont play the game of love, you can never win,

If you say that youll stand beside me,

Take my hand, cause love could set us free! - if you listen to me.

And when you need a shoulder, Ill be there.

For anything anytime, anywhere.

We wont miss being part of a world that keeps growing cold.

You and I could be happy, capable of anything,

And as we get old, - well still be young!

And thats what I want, are you what I need - yeah!

Thats what Im still hoping for consumed by the thought, and the air that I breathe.

Cause I dont want to believe that love is war.

I know what I want, do you know what you need - yet?

Because Ive been here before.

Youre in every thought, and the air that I breathe.

We dont have to be lonely anymore.
