Already Want You

Already Want You (3:40) Words and music by Philip Scott Poli c 2020
He watched her set herself up in her corner
Put her book and her glasses in place
And then play with the shades so the light was just so
Take a look at the menu to consider her order
A London fog or a latte each day was a mystery he just didn't know
And as she passed his way his silent voice would say

I already want you
Because I'm so taken
By all these little things that you do
When I close my eyes I can imagine
You saying that you want me too
And if I let go into a day dream
I start to believe it could be true
I know it sounds crazy
But I already want you

She's afraid of fire and lonely nights
He fears his desire and so he bites his tongue
With no courage to speak

And she felt his eyes fall upon her each day
And though she's not for attention
The silent voice inside her would say

I already want you
Because I'm so taken
By all these little things that you do
When I close my eyes I can imagine
You saying that you want me too
And if I let go into a day dream
I start to believe it could be true
I know it sounds crazy
But I already want you
I know it sounds crazy
But I already want you
