Satisfy Me

Ian Van Dahl · Other Songs - Ian Van Dahl

You always know just what to do
You satisfy me
You always know just what to say
You satisfy me
Before you I was blind
You opened up my mind

And now with you it feels so right
You satisfy me
And now with you I feel so safe
You satisfy me
And from now on youÂ’ll be mine
Until the end of time

DonÂ’t need no words
To know that youÂ’re mine
I see your face
You make me smile
When I ‘m with you I feel so high

DonÂ’t need no words
To know that youÂ’re mine
I see your face
You make me smile
When I ‘m with you I feel so high

YouÂ’ll always be the only one
You satisfy me
YouÂ’ll always be the only one I love
You satisfy me
Before you I was blind
You opened up my mind

And everyday I want you more
You satisfy me
And every night I need your touch
You satisfy me
From now on youÂ’ll be mine
Until the end of time

DonÂ’t need no words
To know that youÂ’re mine
I see your face you make me smile
When I am with you I feel so high

DonÂ’t need no words
To know that youÂ’re mine
I see your face you make me smile
When I am with you I feel so high
