I Want You Near Me
Should you stay? Should you go?
You're beginning to see
I blow hot, I blow cold
It's just the devil in me
You've got to understand, I am
In love with a beautiful man
So if you're feeling insecure
You've really got no cause to be
I want you near me, don't you turn away
(Just got) just got used to having you around
I want you near me, come on here and stay
(Don't let me down) don't let me down
(Don't let me down)
You're so good with your hands
To help me with a hook or a zip
Indispensable, that's what you are
For the occasional kiss
I'm only playing games with you
I can't be nice without being cruel
I know it's not fair, but I make the rules
I want you near me, don't you run away
(Just got) just got used to having you around
I want you near me, come on here and stay
(Don't let me down) don't let me down
(Don't let me down) don't let me down
I want you near me, baby
All I want, I've decided
Is your attention undivided
I want you near me, oh, don't turn away
I want you near me, oh, won't you stay?
I want you near me, don't you run away
(Just got) I just got used to having you around
I want you near me, come on here and stay
(Don't let me down) don't let me down
(Don't let me down) don't let me down
I want you near me, baby
Don't turn away (don't you turn away)
I want you near me, baby (come and stay)
Come on and stay
Whoa (want you near me, don't turn away)
Want you near me, baby
You're beginning to see
I blow hot, I blow cold
It's just the devil in me
You've got to understand, I am
In love with a beautiful man
So if you're feeling insecure
You've really got no cause to be
I want you near me, don't you turn away
(Just got) just got used to having you around
I want you near me, come on here and stay
(Don't let me down) don't let me down
(Don't let me down)
You're so good with your hands
To help me with a hook or a zip
Indispensable, that's what you are
For the occasional kiss
I'm only playing games with you
I can't be nice without being cruel
I know it's not fair, but I make the rules
I want you near me, don't you run away
(Just got) just got used to having you around
I want you near me, come on here and stay
(Don't let me down) don't let me down
(Don't let me down) don't let me down
I want you near me, baby
All I want, I've decided
Is your attention undivided
I want you near me, oh, don't turn away
I want you near me, oh, won't you stay?
I want you near me, don't you run away
(Just got) I just got used to having you around
I want you near me, come on here and stay
(Don't let me down) don't let me down
(Don't let me down) don't let me down
I want you near me, baby
Don't turn away (don't you turn away)
I want you near me, baby (come and stay)
Come on and stay
Whoa (want you near me, don't turn away)
Want you near me, baby
