I Just Wanna Be There (Reprise) Lyrics

Thank you for having me here tonight. This is a song about a girl

I've come a long way to see you

Yeah, but nothing's the same since you lost your mind

That face you got disturbs me

It looks just like what I left behind

We fell out cause of exhaustion

Distance, money and shame

A love like ours ain't often

But that's what everybody says

I just wanna be there with you

I just wanna be there in your arms

A pure naked lover like the day I was born

A pure naked lover like the day I was born

I just wanna be there with you

I just wanna be there in your arms

Crying with you, darling, like the day I was born

Crying with you, darling, like the day I was born

Honey, the world don't look like

The word of the gospel says it should

Waiting for the fast train to take me

Beyond that hungry she-wolf's woods

Thrown about on a sea of love

Ain't salt to drown the weeds of hate

Calling to you like a pilgrim cause

They wouldn't let me through the second gate

I just wanna be there with you

I just wanna be there in your arms

Crying with you, darling, like the day I was born

Crying with you, darling, like the day I was born

I just wanna be there with you

I just wanna be there in your arms

A pure naked lover like the day I was born

A pure naked lover like the day I was born

Just like the day I was born

Honey, the road is a danger

But hearts burn best on the darkest nights

Love is born between strangers

I still got that picture of you and I

One of us was put on trial

With a dixie cup of a drug cocktail

The other left to lick his wounds alone

With a hand me down that stinks of booze

With a hand me down that stinks of booze

I just wanna be there with you

I just wanna be there in your arms

Crying with you, darling, like the day I was born

Crying with you, darling, like the day I was born

I just wanna be there with you

I just wanna be there in your arms

Pure naked lovers like the day I was born

A simple kind of lover like the day I was born
