What We Want Lyrics

What We Want

words & music by jason mraz



I'm older than I look I see the man staring at my i.d.



He reads my face and studies lines no plagiarizing 



No copyright. I'm right before your very eyes 



When you say my name I'm suddenly I'm young again



Young as he thinks I am.



 



All the words that I hoped you'd say were stated right there in the cafŽ



We stayed out late and spoke of the worlds perfections



This perfect date was headed in the right direction 



Conversation break, we spoke more in the silence



We got a little lot of what we want



 



What we want.



 



I'm so in love finally.



I waited patiently for all of my life.



It happened overnight.



We spoke more in the silence



We got a little lot of what we want.
