Lyrics

[Verse 1]
No one can tell me
That I'm pretending
Why should I play games?
Love's not a play thing
[PreChorus]
Questions people ask of me for loving you
Why should I say the reasons on my own?
[Chorus]
No one has wanted more than I want you
No one has needed more than I do
No one has wanted more than I want you
(No one has needed more than I do) No one can love you more than I love you
[Verse 2]
No, I'm not dreaming
Love has a meaning
You're all I live for
No one can give more
[PreChorus]
Questions people ask of me for loving you
Why should I say the reasons on my own?
Oh, oh
[Chorus]
No one has wanted more than I want you
No one has needed more than I do
No one has wanted more than I want you
(No one has needed more than I do) No one can love you like I do
[Instrumental]
Oh, oh, no one has wanted more than I want you
No one has needed more than I do
No one has wanted more than I want you (No one, no one has wanted you)
No one has needed more than I need you (No more than I do)
No one has wanted more than I want you
No one has needed more than I do
No one has wanted more than I want you (No one has wanted)
No one has needed more than I need you (No one has needed)
No one has wanted more than I want you
No one has needed more than I need you (I want you)
