Lyrics

Anytime I need to see your 
I just close my eyes and I am taken to a place
Where your crystal mind and magenta
Feelings take up shelter
In the base of my mind
Sweet, like a chic-a-cherry cola

I don't need to try and explain
I just hold on tight and if it happens again
I might move so slightly to the arms
Or the lips, or the face
Of the human cannon ball that I need to
I want to

Come stand a little bit closer
Breathe in and get a bit higher
You'll never know what hit you when
I get to you

Ooh, I want you
I don't know if I need you
But ooh, I'd die to find out
Ooh, I want you 
I don't know if I need you
But, ooh, I'd die to find out

I'm the kind of person who endorses a deep commitment
Getting comfy, getting perfect if what I live 
But a look and then a smell of perfume
It's like I'm down on the floor and I don't know 
What I'm in for

Conversation has a time and place in the interaction
Of a lover and a mate but the time for talking
Using symbols, using words can be 
To a deep-sea diver who is
Swimming with a raincoat

Come stand a little bit closer
Breathe in and get a bit higher
You'll never know what hit you when
I get to you

Ooh, I want you
I don't know if I need you
But ooh, I'd die to find out
Ooh, I want you 
I don't know if I need you
But, ooh, I'd die to find out

Ooh, yeah-yeah
Ooh, yeah-yeah

Anytime I need to see your face
I just close my eyes and I am taken to a place
Where your crystal mind and magenta
Feelings take up shelter
In the base of my mind
Sweet, like a chic-a-cherry cola

I don't need to try and explain
I just hold on tight and if it happens again
I might move so slightly to the arms
Or the lips, or the face
Of the human cannon ball that I need to
I want you

Ooh, I want you
I don't know if I need you
But ooh, I'd die to find out
Ooh, I want you 
I don't know if I need you
But, ooh, I'd die to find out

Ooh, I want you
I don't know if I need you
But ooh, I'd die to find out
Ooh, I want you 
I don't know if I need you
But, ooh, I'd die to find out
