Testo I Want You - LL Cool J
Testo della canzone I Want You (LL Cool J), tratta dall'album Radio
Look girl, I'm not gonna sing 'cause I just don't do that
I see you in between class, for my mind that's a task
One glimpse of your eyes and my heart beats fast
A mysterious fantasy, lovely young queen
Your pose so subtle, just like a magazine
Come and visit my sister, sit in the living room
Eat donuts and milk, listen to a pop tune
Used to be my babysitter, I want you for my woman
Without you girl, my life is bitter like a lemon
I want you
I want you
I daydream love scenes, girl, when you pass by
I wonder what the future holds for you and I
I tell my friends fairy tales about me and you
My total devotion for you is true
See you on the bus, I trip as I get on
My body gets warm but my mind is torn
I admit you're the queen of elegance
Maybe I'm just another puppy love nuisance
I will tell you straight up, not cologne or a letter
Opportunity knocks, I feel I just better
Disappear out of sight, rejection is my fright
To me you're like a drug or a hazy red light
I want you
I want you
I'm weak, I can't speak, I'm messing up in school
Just to hear your name girl, it makes me drool
As you sing falsetto on the college choir
My temperature level grows much higher
Spend the night over my house with my sister and friends
I wish you wouldn't treat me like I'm your cousin
Your high school yearbook under my pillow
You walk by my window, I see your silhouette
Candlelight is what I desire
But all I get to do is fix your flat tire
When you ring my bell, perfume I smell
The aroma pierces through my heart cell
I tell you that my sister isn't here today
You go away but I wish you'd stay
Yes girl, I'm twisted around your finger
When you leave, your perfume lingers
I want you
I want you
The clock tick-tocks as I lay in my bed
It's visions of you circling through my head
I sip lemon iced tea, read a magazine
Wish we were involved in a steamy love scene
Saturday night, it's time to party y'all
But an unseen force has my back on the wall
All eyes hit the door, red dress shines loud
The moment has come, my fantasy's here now
You sip gin and tonic with a double whole straw
Finally I get the nerve to buy you one more
The bartender smirks, I whisper he's a jerk
I'm wearing leather pants and a thirty dollar shirt
Offer you some double mints, sit back, practice smile
Try to act like I'm relaxed and not a child
See I'm sixteen and you're in college
Lovely sweet thing, please give me the knowledge
I want you
I want you
See it's easy to detect a line that's preset
What you don't know is you're the woman I've wanted to get
For years and now I'm here sweet dear
Cooler than snow under a polar bear
I light your cigarette with a Raphael lighter
Your dress seems like it's getting tighter and tighter
The ice cubes melt, the heat is felt
The card's on the table and my deal is dealt
I want you
I want you
I had to search through my soul, cowardice kept a hold on me
And the key was analyzing my role
As a man to instigate romance
Not break down and cry when you ask for a dance
Some fellas talk to her but she walks by
She can only say no, it's not do or die
Like Bed-Stuy, it's nature's way
A sweet love story from LL to Jay
I want you
I want you
