( .  o  O  DANCING  ON  THE  WINGS  OF  FANTASY  O  o  . )


can you tell how much I want to kiss you?
does my desire show in my eyes?
do you see how I try to resist you
and how hard it is to compromise?
can you tell how much I want to hold you?
does my passion show on my face?
I ask because I still have not told you
is that respect?... is it a disgrace?

I want to be with you
but I still walk away
we've got to take it slow
that's what we both say
but in my heart and mind
there is no doubt
I want you so much
I've just got to let it out
that's what the tension in this song's all about

I feel foolishly afraid to tell you how I'm feeling
so unsure of what you might say back to me
I wish I knew exactly what you were feeling
and what will be, but that's fantasy,
and this is this moment's reality

I want to be with you
but we still walk away
and it drives me crazy
when will we come to stay
I trust your heart and mind
on instinct alone
and I'll risk being wrong
as I stand here on my own
tell me this is not something like the twilight zone

I let it show... I let it flow... I let it grow
because I want you to know
I want to be with you, don't want to walk away
we move so carefully, because of yesterday
but in your heart and mind, what's going on?
when you look at me, can all fears be gone?
that's how I feel when I look at you and sing this song

I want to be with you, right now
I want to be with you, when will we allow
our hearts and minds to touch, do you feel it too?
you said it will happen, so now I'm asking you
can we stay together tonight
and let the sun shine through

we don't even have to touch tonight
I only want to be with you
is that asking too much tonight?
let me show you it's true
I only want, I only want, I only want to be with you
I want to be with you
I want to be with you



I Want To Be With You
