[Intro]

Ooh, oh, yeah

Oooh, Lord

(Here)

[Verse 1]

How beautiful are you?

There's more than a thousand replies

Could it be your lips or your golden eyes?

[Verse 2]

When I think of an answer

That's when I get so surprised

Another wonder of the world, realized

That's why

[Chorus]

I just don't want you here

I just don't want you near me, baby, no

'Cause I'm scared I'll cry and love you like crazy

Flying above all fears

I haven't seen any tears, not lately

(No, no)

I don't want to land, not even maybe

[Verse 3]

How desperate am I?

I wonder if you are what keeps me alive

Alone I can't get as high, even though I've tried

Oh

[Verse 4]

It's different when you're grown

The wine don't taste the same when you're alone

The size of the bed now seems like the biggest that I've ever known

Oh

[Chorus]

I just don't want you here

I just don't want you near me, baby, oh no

'Cause I'm scared I'll cry and love you like crazy

But I'm flying above all fears

(So high)

I haven't seen any tears, not lately

(No, no)

I don't want to land not even maybe

[Bridge]

There's so much more for you and me to explore

Ooh baby baby

When you walk through that door

I am gonna give you what you waited for

[Spoken Interlude]

Listen baby, let me break this down

I am going to say this once

Then I am going to leave this town

If you can learn to open your eyes under water

Then you and me won't drown without each other

I promise I'll see you on the other side

If you just believe in me and trust this ride

The quickest way, baby

You and me, sincere

Right now, I just don't want you here

(I don't, here, I don't, here, I don't want...)

I just want you here

(don't make me want you)

[Chorus]

I just want you here

I just want you near me, baby

I'm scared I'll cry and love you like crazy

I'm flying above all fears

(So high)

I haven't seen any tears, not lately, no

I don't want to land, not even maybe

Here

[Outro]

Don't listen to me, no

I just need you here

Oh, Lord

I just want you here

I just want you, want you here

Donny Hathaway's "Song For You" ain't the same without you

Here
