Lyrics & Translation
[English]
Need you, I need youI need you, I need you
I need you, need you
Yeah
When I'm with you, I'm excited for no reason (I'm excited)
I visit just so I can get that feelin' (I need you)
Sittin' down, feel like I'm walkin' on the ceilin' (yeah)
You got me sweatin' and my lips just started peelin' (whoa, ecstasy)
You bring out in the best in me (whoa, best in me)
Never feelin' lonely when you next to me (lonely, ecstasy, ecstasy)
You come all pressed, but you still never press me (they be pressin' you, ecstasy)
Don't think I could live without you, I need your recipe (ecstasy, ecstasy, ecstasy, I need you)
I'm antisocial, when I'm with you, I feel like minglin'
I can feel it in your touch, my face is tinglin' (ooh)
When I'm in the booth, you help me find my melody
Just a quarter of your love could change my energy (whoa)
You keep my company, you keep me out my misery (whoa)
I love the feelin' on my tongue when you be kissin' me (oh)
We been together for five years, we got some history
I pick you up from the same place, I like consistency (plug)
You get in my head, I don't know where my patience goes
But you got my back, you help me be more confrontational
When I fall asleep, I wake up and you gone (gone)
I ain't trippin', I'm just glad we get along (yeah)
When I'm with you, I'm excited for no reason (I'm excited)
I visit just so I can get that feelin' (I need you)
Sittin' down, feel like I'm walkin' on the ceilin' (yeah)
You got me sweating, and my lips just started peelin' (whoa, ecstasy)
You bring out in the best in me (whoa, best in me)
Never feelin' lonely when you next to me (lonely, ecstasy, ecstasy)
You come all pressed, but you still never press me (they be pressin' you, ecstasy)
Don't think I could live without you, I need your recipe (ecstasy, ecstasy, ecstasy, I need you)
Need you
I need you, I need you
I need you, need you
Yeah, yeah
Had a lot of things about you, but your past erasable (yeah)
And there's others like you, but I don't think you're replaceable
My heart's beatin' out my chest, I feel sensational
Take me on a trip and it's on you how my vacations go
My life's a series, every day's another episode
You make me feel like what I'm sayin' is acceptable
Need you, I need you
I need you, I need you
Need you, need you
