I Wanna Be With You

Lady Gaga · Artpop [2013]

It's off, it's on

The party's just begun

Take off, and run

Let's celebrate the fun of being young

I don't wanna grow up

I don't wanna grow up



But when the lights come on

You lift me up, and I feel strong



I won't be right without you

And I might break without you

I rather be poor and happy than rich and alone

I'll write hit songs about you

No matter how we'll get through

I'll keep on singing for living, but I wanna be in love

And I wanna be with you

I wanna be with you.



Lights off, lights on

The music has begun

More light, you run, and get the bad guy's gun

I love the songs that you play

And I don't care what they say

Cause I was born this way



When I hear you scream, I hear the top of the staging

Close my eyes, I know exactly who I am



I won't be right without you

And I might break without you

I rather be poor and happy than rich and alone

I'll write hit songs about you

No matter how we'll get through

I'll keep on singing for living, but I wanna be in love

And I wanna be with you

I wanna be with you.



I won't be right without you

And I might break without you

I rather be poor and happy than rich and alone

I'll write hit songs about you

No matter how we'll get through

I'll keep on singing for living, but I wanna be in love

And I wanna be with you



Wanna be with you, wanna be with you

Wanna be with you, I wanna be with you



No matter what breaks me, I wanna be with you
