I Want You Lyrics
I've seen suckers lose themselves in the games they learn to play,
Children love to sing but then their voices slowly fade away.
People always take a step away from what is true,
That's why I like you around,
I want you.
Ohh do ya do ya do ya do ya do ya do ya do... you're making me want you.
An open invitation to the dance,
Happenstance set the vibe that we are in,
No apology because my urge is genuine,
And the mystery of your rhythm is so feminine.
Here I am and I want to take a hit,
Of your scent cause a bit,
So deep into my soul,
I want you.
Yeah ya do ya do ya do ya do ya do ya do ya do... you're making me want you. Ohh ya do ya do ya do ya do ya do ya do... I want you.
Send me all your vampires,
And I can't get enough,
And I can't get enough,
The village church yard is filled with bones weeping in the grave,
The silver lining of clouds shines on people Jesus couldn't save,
You want to know how deeply my soul goes,
Deeper than bones, Deeper than bones,
And I can't get enough.
I I I IIII
Oh I can't get enough.
Oh I can't get enough.
You you you you you
Oh I can't get enough.
After we did it by the window sill,
Smoke rings drift into the midnight sky,
Presently in the quilt that your mother made,
I burn a candle just to fight off the gloom,
You said to live in this way is not for the meek,
but you talk real soft and kiss me on the cheek.
And like a jazz DJ you're talking in your sleep,
I said there'll be no regrets when the worms come,
And they will surely come.
Ohh do ya do ya do ya do ya do ya do ya do... you're making me want you.
Send me all your vampires,
I want you
Children love to sing but then their voices slowly fade away.
People always take a step away from what is true,
That's why I like you around,
I want you.
Ohh do ya do ya do ya do ya do ya do ya do... you're making me want you.

So deep into my soul,

Yeah ya do ya do ya do ya do ya do ya do ya do... you're making me want you. Ohh ya do ya do ya do ya do ya do ya do... I want you.
Send me all your vampires,
And I can't get enough,
And I can't get enough,
The village church yard is filled with bones weeping in the grave,
The silver lining of clouds shines on people Jesus couldn't save,
You want to know how deeply my soul goes,
Deeper than bones, Deeper than bones,
And I can't get enough.
I I I IIII
Oh I can't get enough.
Oh I can't get enough.
You you you you you
Oh I can't get enough.

Ohh do ya do ya do ya do ya do ya do ya do... you're making me want you.
Send me all your vampires,
I want you

I could sing this song forwards and backwards, it's that good. This is my ALL-TIME favorite song. It's so beautiful and I love the meaning, too. Wanting someone so bad, but you can only have them in your dreams. Literally.
It's awesome how Stephan captured the innocense of young love in it's purest form, it's not about the future or what it holds, it's about what is wanted now, hence the line "there will be no regrets when the worms come".
I totally agree. 100%.

i like the0song, but can someone explain "the worms"? and sending him all her vampires??
@honestyormystery They'll be no regrets when the worms come ~= "We lived our lives to the fullest" so we won't feel cheated by death when it surely comes.

"Send me all your vampires" ~= A woman you're really into can consume a man to the point he can have a difficult time even thinking about much else. Some women understand this and can create a giant vortex of energy vampirism on someone. He's saying he understands this and he doesn't care : "Bring it".

Worms are what eat you in the grave, "there will be no regrets when we are dead." As for vampires I think it might refer to her pain or suffering, and how he wants to take them from her. Perhaps it may be her faults and he loves her through them and wants to accept them.
have ya'll (i'm from seattle.. where did ya'll come from??) heard the cover that alana davis does of this song? it's pretty good... a little over produced... but she has an awesome (or awsum.. lol) voice... but she can't beat 3eb... favorite 3eb song... wait no it's not... motorcycle drive by... THAT is the song... but i'll just go over and post there now... haha
As for, "Send me you all your vampires, I want you", I think that means that even though she has all these "vampires", he wants her nonetheless. Vampires could be used in reference to her bad side, or the things that may bother him or things that make her seem "evil" like annoying habits or whatnot. ho hum
Woah! the catcher in the rye is the best book ever! I absolutely love it!
3eb is the greatest band ever, and stephen can write and penetrate so deeply into you. This is my favorite song along with God Of Wine, it's SOOOOOOOOOOOO beautiful! Is like calm, and pure. I love the part of "Send me all you're vampires" that I think that he is saying to her to send all the bad things and all that's bad in your life to me so I can help you. Is like loving someone so much that it digs "so deeply into your soul". I haven't interpreted the first part of the song as TxBxS but I think he is totally right... that we are inoccent but very soon that inocence disappear and we forget what real and pure love means. I love this song god! every single chord every single word... it just touches me SO much. Thanks 3eb! you have no idea how much you had help!
"No apologies because my urge is genuine." Brilliant.
this is prolly my fave 3eb song. its beauty, to me, ranks up there w/ THE SCIENTIST(which is the highest) and a few others.
