Verse 1
I used to think I’d be better by myself
But then you show up
And my theory’s shot to hell

PreChorus
I wish I could
(Wish I could be your lover)
I could be the one you’d try
(Wish I could,
Be the one that you try forever)
I wish I could
(Wish I could be your lover)
I could look into your eyes
(Wish I could…Ooo ahh)

Verse 2
I used to be in control of how I felt
But then you blow up
And I feel like I could melt

(Repeat PreChorus)

Chorus
I want you to be
(I want you to be, ha, forever)
In my arms
Man I wish you could see
(Man I wish you could see, ha, forever)
I’m no harm

Man I’m down on my knees
(I been down on my knees, ha, forever)
For your charm
Man I’m asking you please
(Man I’m asking you please, ha, forever)
For your heart

Verse 3
I used to think I’d be better by myself
But then you show up
And my theory’s shot to hell

PreChorus2
I wish I could
(Wish I could be the one that you try,
Be the one that you want)
I could be the one you’d try
(Be the one that you…
Be the one that you try forever)

I wish I could
(Wish I could be the one that you try,
Be the one that you want)
I could look into you eyes
(Be the one that you…)

(Repeat Chorus)

Breakdown
Mmmmm
Ah ah ahhhhh
Mmmmm
Ah ah ahhhhh
Mmmmm
Ah ah ahhhhh
Mmmmm
Ah ah ahhhhh

Won’t you please
Come with me
Let me be
Your baby

Say to me
I love thee
Call us “we”
My baby

(Repeat Chorus)
