I Want You

In the very beginning,
I was just having fun
But now I'm constantly thinking
That you just may be the one

I'm really taken by you
At first it was mostly lust and infatuation
I've developed deep feelings for you
I'm starting to feel those love sensations

I admit, that I tried to keep my guard up
So very careful, I'd thought I'd be
Not to catch any feelings
That way, things were less complicated for me.

But despite my best efforts
Being with you gave me a natural high
And I had to be with you more and more
Overwhelming passion that I couldn’t describe

But I've been down this road many times
And each time, reaching a dead end.
I need friendship as well as a lover
This I need for you to comprehend

I need someone that's down for me
Not just out for my dough
And if you're not ready for all that
Just simply let a nigga know.

I just want to be the man
That makes you happy everyday
I just want to love you
In every possible way.

I'm only trying to give you
What so many relationships lack
And if you're not ready for that
Now is the time to turn back

I actually want to know
Just where it is that I stand
And if you think that you're ready
To handle a darn good man!
