I Want to Be with You Lyrics

I drove down your street
Just to try to see you
On my way back home

And I tried my best to reach you
I called you by the telephone
But hung up before you could answer

Now I tried my best to keep in touch
Only you will hold my heart forever
Now I tried so hard just to hold on
But it was hard 'cause you were gone
Forever

And I
I will love you deep
Deeper than the ocean
And I
There are words I can't
Speak so try to listen
I want to be with you
I want to be with you

I tried to hold my breath
But it's clear you can't see through me
Even after all these years,
It's still so clear

And I
I'm sorry for leaving
It was wrong to disappear
Could you ever take me back,
Just like that?

Now I tried my best to keep in touch
Only you will hold my heart forever
Now I tried so hard just to hold on
But it was hard 'cause you were gone
Forever

And I
I will love you deep
Deeper than the ocean
And I
There are words I can't
Speak so try to listen
I want to be with you
I want to be with you

I was driving faster, faster
My heart beating harder, harder
My love growing stronger, stronger
Each time I drew closer
(X2)

And I
I will love you deep
Deeper than the ocean
And I
There are words I can't
Speak so try to listen
I want to be with you
I want to be with you

I want to be with you

I drove down your street
Just to try to see you
On my way back home

I drove down your street
Just to try to see you
On my way back home

And I tried my best to reach you
I called you by the telephone
But hung up before you could answer

Now I tried my best to keep in touch
Only you will hold my heart forever
Now I tried so hard just to hold on
But it was hard 'cause you were gone
Forever

And I
I will love you deep
Deeper than the ocean
And I
There are words I can't
Speak so try to listen
I want to be with you
I want to be with you

I tried to hold my breath
But it's clear you can't see through me
Even after all these years,
It's still so clear

And I 
I'm sorry for leaving
It was wrong to disappear
Could you ever take me back,
Just like that?

Now I tried my best to keep in touch
Only you will hold my heart forever
Now I tried so hard just to hold on
But it was hard 'cause you were gone
Forever

And I
I will love you deep
Deeper than the ocean
And I

My heart beating harder, harder
My love growing stronger, stronger

And I

Deeper than the ocean
And I
There are words I can't
Speak so try to listen
I want to be with you
I want to be with you

I want to be with you

I drove down your street
Just to try to see you
On my way back home

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.

This song is about a girl who is deeply in love with a guy but had to leave town for whatever reason and while she was away let him go. Now she is coming back to town and to him and wants him back, but everything is still so confusing for both of them and the boy is angry and upset and mostly confused.
