I Want You Lyrics
The eagle wants a canyon
And a place where he can rest his wings a while
The drifter wants a freight train
That will carry him another hundred miles
The lion's only lookin' for something he can sink his teeth into
Oh and I want you
The devil wants a fella
With a weakness he can wrap his arms around
The champion wants a challenger
Who just might have the strength to take him down
The river wants an ocean to run towards
And pour its heart into
Oh and I want you
Oh, every time that I'm around you
Oh, I'm on fire when we touch
Oh, when I hold you boy you know
I can't get close enough
Yes I want you
I could cry and say I need you
Tell you that i die when you're not here
I could lie and say I love you
Pour a little poison in your ear
But all I'm gonna give you is
Nothing but the bare and naked truth
Baby I want you
Baby I want you
And a place where he can rest his wings a while
The drifter wants a freight train
That will carry him another hundred miles
The lion's only lookin' for something he can sink his teeth into
Oh and I want you
With a weakness he can wrap his arms around
The champion wants a challenger
Who just might have the strength to take him down
The river wants an ocean to run towards
And pour its heart into
Oh and I want you
Oh, I'm on fire when we touch
Oh, when I hold you boy you know
I can't get close enough
Yes I want you
Tell you that i die when you're not here
I could lie and say I love you
Pour a little poison in your ear
But all I'm gonna give you is
Nothing but the bare and naked truth
Baby I want you
Baby I want you

I think this song is about wanting to be with someone even though you don't love them. Like at the beginning when it's talking about things that different things want, not because they need them, but because they just want them. It's about infatuation, really, more than love, but wanting the person despite not being in love.
