[Intro] Mm, yeah Ooh I know, now what I need (it's you) [Verse 1] They fix their collars when they see me coming Drop a line like I haven't heard a hundred I play along - good smile, right posture But nobody's seen the girl past the allure You showed up easy, not rehearsed for sure (for sure) Caught me singing off-key through the kitchen window Didn't even flinch - just leaned on the counter Said "Do that again" like you really meant it [Pre-Chorus] Everybody wants the polished version of me But you know me the best - of that I'm certain I been holding all of this together without you I need you holding me - wanna be myself tonight (tonight) [Chorus] I know what I want - it's you Room full of liars and I'm thinking of you They want the heels and the attitude You love the mess underneath - that's why I know what I want - it's you (you... you, you, you) Heads turn when I walk by and I feel self-conscious I hear pickup lines and the mansplaining all day I already know what I want - it's you (What I want!) (It's you, you, you) (What I want!) (It's you, you, you) [Verse 2] We were kids with the scraped-up knees and dirty feet Barefoot 'til September, didn't have a care Climbed the fence, chased crawdads in the creek Came home muddy, mama shaking her head at me Before I learned to cross my legs and smile Be the kind of pretty that could work a room a while But they don't know the undercover girl You know the one girl who had dirt under her nails [Pre-Chorus] They see the "ten," the untouchable You see the kid who's still in there And I don't know why that scares me but I need you Like jumping off the dock before you think you should [Chorus] I know what I want - it's you Room full of liars and I'm thinking of you They want the heels and the attitude You love the mess underneath - that's why I know what I want - it's you (you... you, you, you) Heads turn when I walk by and I feel self-conscious I hear pickup lines and the mansplaining all day I already know what I want - it's you (What I want!) (It's you, you, you) (What I want!) (It's you, you, you) [Bridge] I trip over my words around you Laugh at the wrong part, spill my drink on cue I'm clumsy with my feelings, I know You just hand me a napkin like "go on, tell me more" I don't gotta be "on cue" when it's us Don't gotta hold it in or re-adjust You will always be the one I love My first lover and my only true friend [Final Chorus] I know what I want - it's you Room full of liars and I'm thinking of you They want the heels and the attitude You love the mess underneath - that's why I know what I want - it's you (you... you, you, you) Heads turn when I walk by and I feel self-conscious I hear pickup lines and the mansplaining all day I already know what I want - it's you (What I want!) (It's you, you, you) (What I want!) (It's you, you, you) [Outro] Mm, yeah What I want is you (It's you, it's you) Still that barefoot girl Just finally realized you are the one worth running to (It's you) I know what I want
