I wander into the conversation
I'll move closer to you
It's coming down to that old confrontation
Only the faces are new
But that's just how it goes tonight
It only takes a little lie
Just in case a lightbulb breaks and sparks fall on our head
Skip the heartache, skip the sorrow
Real life will resume tomorrow
Don't regret what got you here
Or you might as well be dead (I need you)

I want you, don't say no
I want you, don't say no
I want you, don't say no
Don't say no, don't say no
I want you, don't say no
I want you, don't say no
I want you, don't say no
Don't say no, don't say no

There's no time for a hundred indecisions
There's no time for visions or revisions
But let's not get ovеrly philosophic
And better men than mе have nailed by appealing to your logic
So bless the father, bless the son
Bless the priest and bless the nun
They obey some higher cause that's lost on you and me
See the cat, see the cradle
If you're willing, if you're able
Noone ever got very far by begging on their knees (I need you)
I want you, don't say no
I want you, don't say no
I want you, don't say no
Don't say no, don't say no
I want you, don't say no
I want you, don't say no
I want you, don't say no
Don't say no, don't say no

I want you, don't say no
I want you, don't say no
I want you, don't say no
Don't say no, don't say no
I want you, don't say no
I want you, don't say no
I want you, don't say no
Don't say no, don't say no
