I want to have you
'Cause you're all I've got
Don't want to lose you
'Cause it means a lot
All the joy this world can bring
Doesn't give me anything
When you're not here

Idiot me
Stupid fool
How could you be
So uncool?
To fall in love with someone who
Doesn't really care for you
It's so obscure

But I feel
Wonderful
Yes I feel
Wonderful

Got it makes me be so blue
Every time I think about you
All of the heat of my desire
Smokin' like some crazy fire
Come on here
Look at me
Where I stand
Can't you see my heart burnin'
In my hands?
Do you want me?
Do you not?
Does it feel cold baby?
Does it feel hot?

I want to hold you
And be so held back
Don't want to need you
But it's where I'm at
Thinkin' bout you every day
How come I was made that way?
It's so surreal

But I feel, wonderful
Yes I feel, wonderful
