I want to be the face you see when you close your eyes
I want to be the touch you need every single night
I want to be your fantasy
And be your reality
And everything between

Like the air you breathe
I want you to feel me
In everything
I want you to see me
In your every dream
The way that I taste you, feel you, breathe you, need you
I want you to need me (need me)
Like I need you

I want to be the eyes that look deep into your soul
I want to be the world to you
I just want it all

I want to be your deepest kiss

The way that I taste you, feel you, breathe you, need you
I want you to need me (need me)
'Cause I need you more than you could know
And I need you to never, never let me go
And I need to be deep inside your heart
I just want to be everywhere you are

I want to be the face you see when you close your eyes (baby)
I want to be the touch you need every single night
I want to be your fantasy
And be your reality
And everything between

I want you to need me
Like the air you breathe
I want you to feel me
In everything
I want you to see me
In your every dream
'Cause baby, I taste you, feel you, breathe you, need you

I want you to need me
Like the air you breathe
I want you to feel me
In your everything
I want you to see me
In your every dream
'Cause baby, I taste you, feel you, breathe you, need you
