I Want You - Common, will.i.am

Once the love was strong

Now it’s long, long gone

Cause the pain, pain now as a storm

I would make, growing old

Cause I want you, cause I want you

I want you, I want you

I’ve been thinking bout, I’ve been thinking bout

I’ve been thinking bout you lately

Thoughts take me to when we were close

Addicted to your love, feel I need another dose

I know it’s a feeling that should be long gone

Things seem to come up when I hear our song

Golden brown girl, it seemed so long

Since I heard your voice, where did the king go wrong?

Emotions that, that they linger on I guess cause I never knew a love so strong

So many hot girls I need your warm

The taste of your mouth girl I need your warm

Good food and love I need your warm

This here was made before we were born

A dreamer so I’m a keep dreaming on It’s kind of like 'The Breakup' with Jen and Vince Vaughn

Once the love was strong

Now it’s long, long gone

Cause the pain, pain now as a storm

I would make, growing old

Cause I want you, cause I want you

I want you, I want you

Cause I want you, cause I want you

I want you, I want you

They say you don’t know, know, know what you got

Till what u got is gone

Yeah I write such and such, yo a lot but the feelings not as strong

We were like 2 birds that were able to fly

I try to pick the right words to say to the sky

Some days I would try but wasn’t able to cry

I never been good at saying goodbye

I take a deep breath when the times is hard

When I reminisce over you, my God

I spent many years trying to be the heartthrob

I guess it’s only right that I got my heart robbed

The scent of a room that reminds me of you

A hint of perfume it reminds me of you

Take a look at the moon it reminds me of you

Hope the stars and the gods align me and you

Once the love was strong

Now it’s long, long gone

Cause the pain, pain now as a storm

I would make, growing old

Cause I want you, cause I want you

I want you, I want you

Cause I want you, cause I want you

I want you, I want you

We do what we do and we do what we live

I love this way cause I got it as a kid

With so much to give from it, I never hid

The love that I wrote on the mirror it got smeared

My friends say it was a change for the better

But I say, girl you changed my forever

Relationships they can be as strange as the weather

Rain or sun we can sing this together

Cause I want you, cause I want you

I want you, I want you

Cause I want you, cause I want you

I want you, I want you
