I Want to Know (International Lady) Songtext

von Terence Trent D'Arby

Listen to me now
I saw you on the street the other day
It could've been Paris or L.A.
I knew right away that I should make you mine
Love ain't that easy to find
Picked up the phone
Looked at the dial
I think I'll give this damn thing one more try tonight

Let's spend the evening together
...together

I chased your shadow all around the world
New York to London... won't you slow down, girl
Hey taxi driver, won't you follow her...
...that who, Ferrari and no other car...
You got away, I stand alone
I'll find ya even if I have to roam the world...

Let's spend the evening together
...together

I want you now
(I want you now)
I need you here
(I want to make sweet love to you)
I want you now
(I want you now)
I dream of you it's all I do when I...(ooOOh)

I finally tracked you down in Florida...
A Martini dried up on the sand.
You were the talk of our society
I'd give it all to hold your hand.
I looked at you, you gave a smile...
You know, I've searched for you, girl, all the while tonight...

Let's spend the evening together
...together (together) together

I want you now
(I want you now)
I need you here
(I want to make sweet love to you)
I want you now
(I want you now)
I dream of you it's all I do when I...(ooOOh)

Now, this is the thing about it, baby...
I searched for you...
I tracked you down...
I went all around the world, I spanned the globe.
You wanted me just as bad as I wanted you...
But now I've got you right here where I want you.
We're in this tropical paradise, in this hotel room
We're holding each other tight, and it feels...
...and it feels like... (oh, oh... whoa)

All right... all right...
Baby... baby...
You know I want you, girl
Shake it down, whooo!

I want you now
(I want you now)
I need you here
(I want to make sweet love to you)
I want you now
(I want you now)
I dream of you it's all I do when I...

I've been a long time on my journey now...
You say let's go, I'm in a hurry...
I'm facing my dream because you're in my arms.
International Lady are you married?

You tell me "yes,"
I ask you why?
"Who said the game was fun?"...
Was your reply...

Let's spend the evening together
...together, together, together

I want you now
(I want you now)
I dream of you...
It's all I la-la ever do...
I want you now
You see, baby I need you here with me
I want you now...
I dream of you - its all I do
