I wanna...

It's been years since I was last sick
but it seems like decades
and I think it was hours.

Nonetheless, here I am,
coming down with a touch of you
a sensation all together new to me.

I wanna tell you
I wanna tell you
I wanna tell you how new you make me feel.
I wanna...

You're a refugee from the prison of my habit,
an idea caught in the current
and now I'm intoxicated.

I lay awake in bed, sick with your face,
drunk on your voice and praying for more.
More of that air you breathe.

I wanna touch you
I wanna touch you
I wanna touch you and see light brighter than the blue of your eyes.
I wanna...

Feeling wrong about feeling right
causes some sort of hesitation
felt only by a breeze about to
tumble down a mountain top...

I just want a place to place my head
knowing that I feel grand
and won't have to wake up
from a dream that never even began...

I've never looked forward to each sneeze
as I do when when I'm coming down with you,
the world's only perfect disease.

A little of you combined with a little of me
has kept me immobilized and unable to speak.
It feels so great to feel so weak.

I wanna be with you
I wanna be with you
I wanna be with you and show you exactly what you do.
I wanna...

I wanna see
I wanna see
I wanna see what life is like on the other side.
I wanna...

The sickness that is also the cure
penetrates and rushes through me
with the severity of a thousand dreams
all rolled up into one timeless glance...

I just want a place to place my head
knowing that I feel grand
and won't have to wake up
from a dream that never even began...

All I Want

ALL I WANT

Joni Mitchell

I am on a lonely road and I am traveling
Traveling, traveling, traveling
Looking for something, what can it be
Oh I hate you some, I hate you some
I love you some
Oh I love you when I forget about me
I want to be strong I want to laugh along
I want to belong to the living
Alive, alive, I want to get up and jive
I want to wreck my stockings in some juke box dive
Do you want - do you want - do you want
To dance with me baby
Do you want to take a chance
On maybe finding some sweet romance with me baby
Well, come on

All I really really want our love to do
Is to bring out the best in me and in you too
All I really really want our love to do
Is to bring out the best in me and in you
I want to talk to you, I want to shampoo you
I want to renew you again and again
Applause, applause - life is our cause
When I think of your kisses
My mind see-saws
Do you see - do you see - do you see
How you hurt me baby
So I hurt you too
Then we both get so blue

I am on a lonely road and I am traveling
Looking for the key to set me free
Oh the jealousy, the greed is the unraveling
It's the unraveling
And it undoes all the joy that could be
I want to have fun, I want to shine like the sun
I want to be the one that you want to see
I want to knit you a sweater
Want to write you a love letter
I want to make you feel better
I want to make you feel free
Hmm, Hmm, Hmm, Hmm,
Want to make you feel free
I want to make you feel free


There could not be a more appropriate song for my mood right now.
