Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I wanna be with you
I wanna be with you
After all the nights of wanting you
Lying there loving you
Hating you tonight
[Verse 2]
I'm touching you, holding you
Well, you're gonna see
We'll make out somehow
Here's my girl and me
They can't hurt us now
We're gonna have it all
[Verse 3]
I'll love you every day
Honey, life could be so great for us
Here's our chance
It's not too late for us
Grab it fast or life won't wait for us
I wanna be with you
I wanna be with you
[Verse 4]
Grab it fast or life won't wait for us
I wanna be with you
Oh, I wanna be with you
I wanna be with you
