I'm out in Philly on the prowl on south street
I'm in the fire goin' low in the [bad word] s seat
That's when i saw ya So adorable
So i had my man drop me at the corner
I walked up on ya
And i asked your name
And you replied kinda shy so
I did sing
I'm not the kind to [bad word]  games
To make it simple and plain, baby

I want you
Like a car needs streets
Like a player needs sneaks
Like a rapper needs beats
I want you
Like [bad word] to a fiend
Like rings to a queen
Like a movie needs scenes
I want you
Like trees to sunshine
Like birds to the fly
There's every while
I want you
Girl I want you
And i'm hopin' that you want me too

I'm back in L.A. in the mall at the swap meet
Tryin'a cop me some cheap sneaks and white tees
Then I see and I'm so surprised
Had to call, cause your number got lost when my phone died
And it was cool to get your number again
We can work on the being friends
Cause this ain't no coincidence
We're meetin' for a reason, it's heaven sent, baby

I want you
Like a car needs streets
Like a player needs sneaks
Like a rapper needs beats
I want you
Like [bad word] to a fiend
Like rings to a queen
Like a movie needs scenes
I want you
Like trees to sunshine
Like birds to the fly
There's every while
I want you
Girl I want you
And i'm hopin' that you want me too

I want you
To love me
I want you
To need me
Can't hold it back
So baby, please
I want you
If loving you
Is a sin
I'm tryin' to take
My chances
I'm fallin' back
In love again
Oh baby

I want you
Like a car needs streets
Like a player needs sneaks
Like a rapper needs beats
I want you
Like [bad word] to a fiend
Like rings to a queen
Like a movie needs scenes
I want you
Like trees to sunshine
Like birds to the fly
There's every while
I want you
Girl I want you
And i'm hopin' that you want me too
