Lyrics for I Wanted To Tell You

Do just what you want to I think you're right I do what I want to do, I do what I want to do I let the world surround me 'Cause I saw no real harm I didn't stop to think of you You were already in my arms I was wrong but I I wanted to tell you, I wanted to telly you What I couldn't say [Love] I needed to find mine But it took me a long time to see Love. . . Well never mind I know how you feel about that Now what do you think about time [Something. . . ] I wanted to tell you, I wanted to tell you What I couldn't say [Love] I needed to find mine But it took me a long time to see [Solo] I do what I want to do, I do what I want to do I do what I want to do, I do what I want to do I let the world surround me 'Cause I saw no real harm I didn't stop to think of you, You were already in my arms But there was something. . . I wanted to tell you, I wanted to tell you What I couldn't say [Love] I needed to find mine But it took me a long time to see [Solo] Love. . .
