They Just Want
They'll tell you they're in it for money, they will say their intentions are pure
They are scouring the room for the prettiest face in the bar
They're hungry for power, they're just picking flowers, they are looking for a war to fight
Or they just want someone, they just want someone to hold tonight
They'll say they are looking for diamonds or that they want to conquer the world
They'll tell you they're building a tower that climbs to the stars
A straight-A report card, an island, a sports car, a woman's cigarette to light
Or they just want someone, they just want someone to hold tonight
They'll say they are hungry for knowledge, they will tell you they're thirsty for God
They are combing the earth for the notes to a song, the world can all join arm in arm and sing along
They want a straight answer, they're trying to cure cancer, they are digging for the sweetest bite
No, they just want someone, they just want someone to hold tonight
They just want someone, they just want someone to hold tonight
They are scouring the room for the prettiest face in the bar
They're hungry for power, they're just picking flowers, they are looking for a war to fight
Or they just want someone, they just want someone to hold tonight
They'll say they are looking for diamonds or that they want to conquer the world
They'll tell you they're building a tower that climbs to the stars
A straight-A report card, an island, a sports car, a woman's cigarette to light
Or they just want someone, they just want someone to hold tonight
They'll say they are hungry for knowledge, they will tell you they're thirsty for God
They are combing the earth for the notes to a song, the world can all join arm in arm and sing along
They want a straight answer, they're trying to cure cancer, they are digging for the sweetest bite
No, they just want someone, they just want someone to hold tonight
They just want someone, they just want someone to hold tonight
