I Want You For Myself

Another Level · Another Level

O, i want you babe, take it easy
Girl you got me think i want you all on my own
Girl you got me think i want for my all
Girl you got me think i want you all on my own
Girl you got me think i want for my all

I want you for myself
I don't want nobody else
To try to intervene or come between
You and me
Cause we got a good thing, baby (repeated)

Why should i play the field
When it's you that i want
I'm not that jealous type
But i ain't gonna front
We should just settle down and stop foolin' around
Cause we both feel for each other
So why should there be them other lovers?

I know what love is
So i know that my feelings are true
Cause i feel for you
But sometimes i feel hurt
Cause i play the fool
So if loving you alone is wrong i don't wanna be right

Chorus

Let's get legitimate and concentrate on us
So when we're intimate our love it based on trust
Cause love is so good when there is two people involved
Just me and you
Cause the thought of you with someone else
Just makes me crazy baby

I know what love is
So i know that my feelings are true
Cause i feel for you
But sometimes i feel hurt
Cause i play the fool
So if loving you alone is wrong i don't wanna be right

Chorus repeated out
