Gotta Have You

You could whisper 

Almost anything 

And it would immediately steal my attention

Bite your bottom lip 

Act like you donʼt know what youʼre doing 

 

Iʼm just boy and you know just how to get me going 

Is this responsible, I think not, baby 

This is spontaneous 

Maybe even bit contagious 

I am addicted to every little thing that you do 

 

So come little closer dear 

Iʼve got something I have to tell you 

I need you I want you I gotta have you (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) 

I need you I want you I gotta have you 

 

I could/can almost 

Taste those lips 

From across this crowded room 

But Iʼd rather have them close to mine 

And here you come now 

 

You start to move somehow 

You got that fire in you smile 

Now your hand is in my pocket 

Close the blinds, Iʼm all yours 

Slam the door, just make sure you lock it I’m addicted to every little thing that you do 

 

So come a little closer dear 

Iʼve got something I have to tell you 

I need you I want you I gotta have you (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) 

I need you I want you I gotta have you 

I need you like the summer trees need the breeze 

 

Youʼre blowing through my mind and I need you all the time 

And I need you just like Coltrane needed Chambers 

You got the time but girl youʼre making me lose my mind 

And I need you like the autumn streams need the leaves 

Youʼre colorful, you keep me warm/youʼre so beautiful 

 

And you got it/you keep me going on 

I need you way more than I can stand Iʼm falling over (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)  

I need you I want you I gotta have you (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) 

I need you I want you I gotta have you 

I need you I want you I gotta have you (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) 

I need you I want you I gotta have you
