M with the I with the S-T double E Q All I want is to be with you Mis-teeq with the one sun-ship [Chorus] All I want Is to be with you But I just got to live, live my own life too All I need to know (need to know that the world) That the world is nuts snap my fingers (fingers) and Everything is fine That's all (that's all) Firing it up and away we go Sitting looking in the mirror like Alice Through the looking glass Life's a never ending journey be careful not to go too fast Sometimes I can't help myself from falling in too deep I know it may be hard to tell your love is calling me Oh-ah, all I want to be, oh-ah And away we go Oh-ah, all I want is (oh-ah) Gonna get on the mic, gonna make you whine All I want Is to be with you But I just got to live, live my own life too All I need to know (need to know that the world) That the world is nuts snap my fingers (fingers) and Everything is fine That's all (that's all) Floating on a river of dreams on a magic carpet ride Take control of my destiny I know it's just a matter of time That I will find that midas touch And everything will turn to gold It would mean nothing without you here to hold Oh-ah, all I want to be, oh-ah And away we go Oh-ah, all I want is oh-ah Gonna get on the mic, gonna make you whine [Chorus] I can read it in the stars that what I want is who you are I will lay my hair down for you a thousand times to show you That when you reach me at the top I'm gonna give you all I got And wherever we go our hearts will follow It's a UK thing, stuff that we bring No one to burn, let the journey begin We're the Mis-teeq, we're in chorus we sing Quick off the mark, ring a ding ding ding In a mix with a bag of tricks Feel the vibe with the one sun-ship Move to the beat it's about music Roll through these tracks with fresh tactics [Chorus: x2] Oh-ah oh-ah oh-ah oh-ah oh-ah oh-ah oh-ah oh-ah Boy I want to be with you (woah) I want to live my own life too (woah) And I got to have it all (woah) That's all (that's all) That's all (woah) I'm gonna snap my fingers (woah) Everything is fine (woah) Want to have it all (woah) Woah-ah woah-ah woah-ah woah-ah Woah-ah woah-ah woah-ah woah-ah Enter
