I Want You

I Want You (Vocal)

by Marvin Gaye

on I Want You (1976)

[Chorus]
I want you—the right way
I want you
But I want you to want me too
Want you to want me, baby
Just like I want you

[Verse 1]
I give you all the love I want in return sweet darling
But half a love is all I feel
It's too bad, it's just too sad, you don't want me now
But I'm going to change your mind, someway, somehow, oh baby

[Chorus]
I want you—the right way
I want you
But I want you to want me too
I want you to want me, baby
Just like I want you

[Verse 2]
This one way love is just a fantasy, oh sugar
To share is precious, pure and fair
Don't play with something you should cherish for life, oh baby
Don't you want to care? Ain't it lonely out there?

[Chorus]
I want you—the right way
I want you
But I want you to want me too
I want you to want me, baby
When I get down with you, yeah

[Outro]
When I get down baby
Have mercy
Listen precious I want you
All of the time
I wanted you
I love when you get back
Oh baby something
I want you - the right way baby
I want you baby
But I want you to want me too baby
Gotta, gotta, gotta want you to want me, baby (loving you)
The way that I love you
