I Want You

[Hook: Will.I.Am] Once the love was strong Now it's long, long gone Cause the pain, came down like a storm I remained, holding on Cause I want you, cause I want you I want you, I want you [Verse 1: Common] 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 [Hook] [Verse 2: Common] They say you don't know, know, know what you got 'Til what you got is gone Yeah I like such and such, yo a lot but the feeling's 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 [Hook] [Verse 3: Common] 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 [Will.I.Am] 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
