I Only Wanna Be with You Lyrics

I don't know what it is that makes me love you so,
I only know I never want to let you go
Cause you started something
Can't you see
That ever since we met
You've had a hold on me
It happens to be true
I only wanna be with you

It doesn't matter where you go or what you do
I want to spend each moment of the day with you
Look what has happened
You just walked in
I never knew that I could be in love like this
It's crazy but it's true
I only wanna be with you

You stopped you smiled at me
And asked me if I cared to dance
I fell into your open arms
I didn't stand a chance
Now listen honey
I just wanna be beside you everywhere
As long as we're together, honey
I don't care
cause you started something
can't you see
That ever since we met
You've had a hold on me
No matter what you do,
I only wanna be with you

no matter, no matter what you do
I only wanna be with you
No matter, no matter what you do
I only wanna be with you

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
