I Really Want You Lyrics - All The Lost Souls - James Blunt

Many prophets preach on bended knee 

Many clerics wasted wine 

Do the bloodied sheets on those cobbled streets 

Mean I have wasted time 

Are there silver shores on paradise 

Can I come in from the cold 

I killed a man in a far away land 

My enemy I'm told 

I really want you to really want me 

But I really don't know if you can do that (I really want you) 

I know you want to know what's right 

But I know it's so hard for you to do that (I really want you) 

And time's running out as often it does 

And often dictates that you can't do that (I really want you) 

But fate can't break this feeling inside 

That's burning up through my veins...

I really want you 

I really want you 

I really want you 

Now... 

No matter what I say or do 

The message isn't getting through 

And you're listening to the sound 

Of my breaking heart 

I really want you 

I really want you 

Is a poor man rich in solitude 

Or will mother earth complain 

Did the beggar pray for a sunny day but 

Lady luck for rain 

They say a million people bow and scrape 

To an effigy of gold 

I saw life begin 

On the ship we're in 

Then history unfold 

I really want you to really want me 

But I really don't know if you can do that (I really want you) 

I know you want to know what's right 

But I know It's so hard for you to do that (I really want you) 

And time's running out as it often does 

And often dictates that you can't do that (I really want you) 

Fate can't break this feeling inside 

That's burning up through my veins... 

I really want you 

I really want you 

I really want you 

Now... 

No matter what I say or do 

The message isn't getting through 

And you're listening to the sound 

Of my breaking heart 

No matter what I say or do 

The message isn't getting through 

And you're listening to the sound 

Of my breaking heart
