I Wanna Be Your Lover

Corinne Bailey Rae

I ain't got no money
I ain't like those other guys you hang around
It's kinda funny
But they always seem to let you down
And I get discouraged
Cause I never see you anymore

And I need your love, babe
That's all I'm living for, yeah
I didn't want to pressure you, baby
But all I ever wanted to do

I want to be your lover
I want to be the only one that makes you come running
I want to be your lover
I want to turn you on, turn you out
All night long, make you shout
Oh, lover! Yeah!

I want to be the only one you come for

I want to be your brother
I want to be your mother and your sister, too
There ain't no other
That can do the things that I'll do to you

And I get discouraged
Cause you treat me just like a child
And they say I'm so shy
But with you I just go wild! 

I didn't want to pressure you, baby (No)
But all I ever wanted to do

I want to be your lover
I want to be the only one that makes you come running
I want to be your lover
I want to turn you on, turn you out
All night long make you shout
Oh, lover! Yeah!

I want to be the only one you come for, yeah
