Lyrics If Only - Hanson

Yeah

'Cause I need you
Yeah

'Cause I need you

Every single time I see you
I start to feel this way
It makes me wonder if I'm ever
Gonna feel this way again
There's a picture that's hanging in the back of my head
I see it over and over

I wanna hold you and love you
In my arms and then
I wanna need you
'Cause I need to be with you 'til the end
Then I hear myself reply
"You've got to hold it in"
This time, tonight

If only
I had the guts to feel this way
If only
Looking at me you'd want to stay
If only
I'd take you in my arms and say
I won't go
'Cause I need you
'Cause I need you
Yeah

I sit here waiting, wondering, hoping
That I'll make this right
'Cause all I think about is your hands, your face
And all these lonely nights

There's a feeling and a screaming in the back of my head
Saying over and over
I wanna hold you and love you
In my arms and then
I wanna need you
'Cause I need to be with you 'til the end
Then I hear myself reply
"She'll never let you in"
This time, tonight

If only
I had the guts to feel this way
If only
Looking at me you'd want to stay
If only
I'd take you in my arms and say
I won't go
'Cause I need you
Please don't go
'Cause I need you now

I wanna hear you say (I wanna hear you say)
It'll always be this way
And we'll be hand in hand
For every night and everyday
I wanna scream and shout (I wanna scream and shout)
'Cause I'm losing any doubt
And all I care about is you and me and us and now

Oooh yeah
Yeah
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Oooh yeah
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Yeah!

If only
I had the guts to feel this way
If only
Looking at me you'd want to stay
If only
I'd take you in my arms and say
I won't go
'Cause I need you
Please don't go
'Cause I need you now

Yeah
'Cause I need you
(If only)
Yeah, oh yeah
'Cause I need you now

(If only)
'Cause I need you, I need you, yeah
(If only)
'Cause I need you
(If only)
'Cause I need you

(If only)
Yeah
(If only)
'Cause I need you now
Yeah
