Squeeze - I Want You lyrics

(Difford/Tilbrook)

You took all you could

And gave all you had

Knowing that I would have to understand

As you changed the locks

And threw out my socks

There was peace at hand

You sat in my chair

Your chin on your knees

I'm no longer there

And you look so pleased

I don't think that I know what to say

In my heart I love you anyway

I want you today

How can I score points

And win back your trust

Where our two hearts join

There's a sign of rust

From the tears you've cried

With the times I've lied

To the two of us

I don't think that I know what to say

In my heart I want you anyway

I can see the road behind me as I walk

I can feel the hurt that's burning as I talk

I can see the kids

As they play outside

I can read their lips

Their eyes open wide
