It's you (Ooh)
I'm at a lost, don't know what to say to you. (Mm)
Throwing me off, I know what I feel but I can't tell you I do.
See now I know my fights not for myself, my fight's for you.
You're everything I never wanted to want, it's true.
Said you're everything I never wanted to want, it's you.
It's you, it's you, it's you.
It's you, it's you. (Mm) (Ey)
I'll write a song three times a day but I can't talk to you. (Ooh)
I know what's wrong, I never meant for me to feel like I do (Oh)
If this is love, it sucks cause I don't want it but I do.
You're everything I never wanted to want, it's true.
Said you're everything I never wanted to want, it's you.
It's you, it's you, it's you.
It's you, it's you. (Mm) (Ey)
Just walk away (ay), wipe that smile off your face. (Hey)
I just wish I could say that to you.
But I need you tonight.
Need you tonight...
I need you for life.
Need you for life, life, life.
Said you're everything I never wanted to want, it's true.
Said you're everything I never wanted to want, it's you.
It's you, it's you, it's you.
(Oh woah woah)
It's you, it's you. (Mm) (Ey)
