I Want You

I Want You

You call me yours, no pause. You say it loud and proud
I check the wings uneasily. I scratch my head? What can I say?

I want you. I want you here. I need you, I need you here

High walls years in building. They keep out hurt and bleeding
Precious gems I’d buy and destroy to prove my point far and beyond

I want you. I want you here. I need you, I need you here
I want you. I want you here. I need you, I need you here

AHHHHHHHHHH! ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL!!!!! This one has captured my heart! I love how it starts quietly and builds in tension up to crescendo with the drums that almost sound like a military band and then it fades out slowly and delicately! And the lyrics! WOW! "High walls years in buildig." I like the architectural metaphor for not letting anyone in.... Hmm, keeping people out seems to be a little bit of a theme in this album... "Concrete that I poured around my fragile heart." "Please don't give your love to me, I will loose it. Go."

Good point of view about keeping people out
About military drums, I thought exactly the same the 1st time I heard this song! (And I cannot avoid to think of Never Forget by Take That live version, that has the same tambourine rhythm)

I thought of Never Forget too, Lucy!
Love this sing... I wish more people would know it.
