I wanted to be somebody you see
|
When you're feeling good
|
I started looking for your little MG
|
In my neighborhood
|
I started feeling kind of funny and free
|
When you were around
|
And I began to cook up a plan to
|
Take you out of town
|
|
Not really dating, we were relating
|
And we were friends
|
It's hard to say where the relating leaves off
|
And where loves begins
|
A friend will tell you all kinds of stuff
|
That a lover won't
|
And you would think you would see love coming
|
But of course, you don't
|
|
I want to hold you, don't want to mold you
|
Into someone else
|
I never could have invented you
|
Or written you so well
|
I never met another woman who
|
Possessed your particular charms
|
I want to be that man who will see that
|
You never come to harm
|
|
Must have been you I dreamed of
|
Yeah that was you all right
|
You were the laughter I was listening to
|
Standing in the light
|
You were the lover in the sunrise who
|
Had begun to slip away
|
Though I was just a kid I must have known
|
You'd be real someday
|
|
I want to know you, I want to show you
|
That you're not alone
|
|
You've been the only thing steadyin' me
|
And I guess we've both known
|
Maybe you haven't been that ready to see
|
That I could take you there
|
Well that was then, but this is when
|
I need to hear you say yeah
|
Baby just say yeah
|

Just Say Yeah
