I Want You

[Part I: I Want You] [Chorus: will.i.am] Once the love was strong Now it's long, long gone 'Cause the pain came down like a storm I remained holding on 'Cause I want you, 'cause I want you I want you, I want you [Verse 1: Common] Uh, I've been thinking 'bout, I've been thinking 'bout I've been thinking 'bout you lately Thoughts take me to when we were close Addicted to your love, feel I need another dose I know it's a feeling that should be long gone Things seem to come up when I hear our song Golden brown girl, it seemed so long Since I heard your voice, where did the king go wrong? Emotions that, that they linger on I guess 'cause I never knew a love so strong So many hot girls, I need your warm The taste of your mouth, girl, I need your warm Good food and love, I need your warm This here was made before we were born A dreamer, so I'ma keep dreaming on It's kind of like "The Break-Up" with Jen and Vince Vaughn [Chorus: will.i.am] Once the love was strong Now it's long, long gone 'Cause the pain came down like a storm I remained holding on 'Cause I want you, 'cause I want you I want you, I want you 'Cause I want you, 'cause I want you I want you, I want you [Bridge: Common] They say you don't know-know-know What you got 'til what you got is gone Yeah, I like such and such, yo, a lot But the feeling's not as strong [Verse 2: Common] We were like two birds that were able to fly I try to pick the right words to say to the sky Some days I would try, but wasn't able to cry I never been good at saying goodbye I take a deep breath when the times is hard When I reminisce over you, my God I spent many years trying to be the heartthrob I guess it's only right that I got my heart robbed The scent of a room that reminds me of you A hint of perfume it reminds me of you Take a look at the moon it reminds me of you Hope the stars and the gods align me and you [Chorus: will.i.am & Common] Once the love (Ha) was strong Now it's long, long gone 'Cause the pain came down like a storm I remained holding on 'Cause I want you, 'cause I want you I want you, I want you 'Cause I want you, 'cause I want you I want you, I want you (Uh) [Verse 3: Common] We do what we do and we do what we live I love this way 'cause I got it as a kid With so much to give from it, I never hid The love that I wrote on the mirror it got smeared My friends say it was a change for the better But I say, "Girl, you changed my forever" Relationships they can be as strange as the weather Rain or sun we can sing this together [Outro: will.i.am] 'Cause I want you, 'cause I want you I want you, I want you 'Cause I want you, 'cause I want you I want you, I want you [Part II: Prelude] [Instrumental: J Dilla] [Interlude: Rhea Williams] The Chicago and Kansas concert in Boston Has been changed to the Kansas and Boston concert in Chicago
