"The Love I Want" lyrics

"The Love I Want"

Some men are better at getting what they want
Sell you a dream until they cut you off
If you don't come through when I need you to
I'm gonna let you go

Sometimes a body betrays him on his thoughts
It goes to places that keep you in the dark
When it feels so good in the cold of the night
I'm gonna let you know

It's love, it's love, it's love I want
And there's nothing I want more
So if you don't want to love me back
I'm gonna let you go
So if you don't want to love me back
I'm gonna let you go

I want it pure, as white as New York snow
A flooding river, a never ending flow
I would stop the sun coming up for days
I'd never let you go

It doesn't matter if you're begging on your knees
I know it's love when it is right in front of me
When it feels so good in the cold of the night
I'm gonna let you go

And it's love, it's love, it's love I want
And there's nothing I want more (Oh there's nothing I want more)
So if you don't want to love me back
I'm gonna let you go
It's love, it's love, it's love I want
So if you don't want to love me back
I'm gonna you let you go

It's love, it's love, it's love I want
It's love, it's love
So if you don't want to love me back
I'm gonna let you go
