I Want You Near Me Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Should you stay should you go
Hmm you're beginning to see
I blow hot i blow cold
Oo it's just the devil in me
You got to understand i am
In love with a beautiful man
So if you're feeling insecure
You've really got no cause to be

[Chorus]
I want you near me
Don't turn away
Just got used to having you around
I want you near me
Come on here and stay
Don't let me down

[Verse 2]
You're so good with your hands
To help me with a hook or zip
Indispensable that's what you are
Hmm for the occasional kiss
I'm only playing games with you
I can't be nice without being cruel
I know it's unfair but i make the rules
[Chorus]

[Bridge]
All i want i've decided
Is your attention
Undivided

[Chorus]

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
