I Want You

[Verse 1 | male vocal, country-pop, confident, warm, close-mic] You walk in easy, like you’ve been here before Room goes quiet, heads turn toward the door They don’t know what I see up close How you change when you drop that pose Say you’re harmless, but I’ve seen that side Spinning slow on a worn-out floor Every time you laugh, I catch that line Pulling me in a little more [Pre-Chorus | building, restrained intensity] I don’t usually move like this Never been pulled in this quick But when they step in, I feel that change And I don’t want to give it [Chorus | hook-forward, big melody] I want you, I want you No halfway, no maybe I want you, no one else near I want you, I want you I want you where I stand Not passing through someone else’s hands I want you [Verse 2 | steady groove, romantic, modern phrasing] No need to rush, but I’m already there Every road circles back to you Got your name running through my head Like it’s something I can’t undo They can talk about space and time Say love’s better loose and free I’m not built for the in-between I want all of what this could be [Pre-Chorus | lift, more open] I don’t mind if they read it wrong Let ’em say what they do If this crosses a line I’m on Then I’m standing in truth [Chorus | big, anthem] I want you, I want you No halfway, no maybe I want you, no one else near I want you, I want you I want you where I stand Not passing through someone else’s hands I want you [Bridge | emotional, breakdown then rise] This ain’t about holding on too tight It’s waking up and choosing you If that kind of love ain’t sitting right Then I’ll see it through [Final Chorus | biggest, harmonies] I want you, I want you No halfway, no maybe I want you, no one else near I want you, I want you I want you where I stand Not passing through someone else’s hands I want you [Outro | soft resolve] Yeah I want you Clear and steady too
