Lyrics Rachael Yamagata

Rachael Yamagata

I Want You

You sat down next to me, like poetry to wine

Out window looked upon a yellow neon sign

I took your hand while you decided what to do

The only kiss, I ever miss, I shared with you

The other cities hold a memory still of a place

But, when I dream of London, I can only see your face

I want you

Or no one

No one else will do

You, or no one

No one is the only one

To fill the empty space I hold for you

You simplified me down to slogans on the wall

I took offense, but you were right about them all

My friends are telling me I shouldn't waste my time

But I can't concentrate until I make you mine

I'm drawing cards and making wishes down by the well

Who would've known I'd lose myself in that old hotel

I want you

Or no one

No one else for me

You, or no one

'Cause no one else is strong enough, strong enough

To slow me down in time to set me free

I want you

Or no one else

No one else is fine

Oh, you, or no one

No one is the only one

To fill me up until I make you mine
