I Want You

you... / I want you... The empty streets all look the same, take me
home blue morning rain / I want you... Calling pictures in my mind,
when I wanna be with you / On this long distance line, how I wish that
you would stay / I want you... Remember what you told me, we always
wind up all alone / together... / As long as rivers will run, as long
as I can see the sun / I want you... Moving pictures in my mind, when
I wanna be with you / Along this long distance line, how I wish that
you would say / I want you! When your nights are lonely, no, you're
not the only / Just waiting for another day, how I wish that you would
say, how I wish that you would say / I want you! For all the love in
your eyes, for all the love that's in your mind / I want you... / I
want you...
