What You Want

Paul Kelly

I want to give you
My love and affection
I've been saving it so long
I can show you
The right direction
Listen to my song

Oh, how long
Must I wait to show you
What you want!

I can see that
You don't like attention
That's how I noticed you
Am I making it clear
My intention
Am I getting through

Oh, how long
Must I wait to show you
What you want!

Oh, don't deny me, boy
You don't know what it is you need
You don't show it but I know it's
What you want!

I'll give you, I promise I'll give you
Love and understanding
And tenderness so sweet and true
Oh, it's what you want!
