i love you

I love you I love you - see you on the train and I love you
I want you I want you - if I catch your eye can I have you?
But I'm no match for that book you read
Not the first time I've lost to Stephen King
My stop's next, I gotta make my move
But I can't find the words to use
If I tell you I'm a gazillionaire and you'll never pay another subway fare
Would you love me - like I love you?

I love you I love you - see you on the street and I love you
I want you I want you - if I carry your bags can I have you?
But you can't hear a word I say
You got your headphones turned up all the way
And everybody in such a goddamn rush
Like trying to meet ain't hard enough
If I promise you can count on me and no matter what I'll never leave
Would you love me - like I love you?

CHORUS:
I love you - everybody knows it's true 
I love you - nobody else will do
I know if we ever met there's nothing we couldn't do
But until that day -  I'm here for you

I love you I love you - see you in the bar and I love you
I want you I want you - if I invent you a drink can I have you?
But I'm not the only one who noticed you
You caused a synchronized turn from every barstool
Forget the drinks, there's a brand new thirst
But I'm hoping that you'll hear me first
If I tell you I'm a traveled man who wants you more than a one night stand
Will you love me - like I love you? 

I love you I love you - see you in a dream and I love you
I want you I want you - if I wake up, you're here can I have you?
But everybody says dreams don't come true
You gotta work hard, sacrifice and go to school
You make your own luck it's the only way
But I'm a dreamer and this is my day
You're the festival I'm in the middle of and I celebrate what we become
I love you - I hope you love me too

CHORUS:
I love you - everybody knows it's true 
I love you - nobody else will do
I know if we ever met there's nothing we couldn't do
But until that day -  I'm here for you
I know if we ever met there's nothing we couldn't do
But until that day -  I'm here for you
