Whoop whoop! Welcome to this week’s #MusicMonday! This is my opportunity to share a track of my liking with you lovely people, all in the name of #MusicMonday, the brainchild of the Tattooed Book Geek, Drew! You can catch up with my choices on my #MusicMonday playlist on Spotify.
Today’s choice comes from quite a new artist to me whose second album Surrender out a couple of weeks ago. I’ve been listening to it a fair few times and this along with Horses are my favourite tracks… enjoy …
Want Want by Maggie Rogers
If you want-want what you want-want, then you want it
You’re better than the men I knew
When we were in a band and you
Wouldn’t flinch and wouldn’t make a move
Try to forget the rest
As I watch you get undressed
Pray to God this won’t be a mess
And I keep runnin’ away
But when I leave, you pull me in again
Oh, here we go
I hold my breath and count the times
I walked my feet up to the line
Oh, we both know
If you want-want what you want-want, then you want it
Can’t hide what you desire once you’re on it
Can’t fake what you can’t break up with, ooh
If you understand that a few years won’t erase it
Might die if you can’t live just to taste it
Want-want what you want-want, then you want it
And I want you
Oh, ooh
Oh, can we take this slow?
Everybody’s always known
But I didn’t want to admit
That when we’re cheek to cheek
I feel it in my teeth
And it’s too good to resist
And I keep runnin’ away
But when I leave, you pull me in again
Oh, we both know
If you want-want what you want-want, then you want it
Can’t hide what you desire once you’re on it
Can’t fake what you can’t break up with, ooh
If you understand that a few years won’t erase it
Might die if you can’t live just to taste it
Want-want what you want-want, then you want it (if you want)
If you want-want what you want-want, then you want it
Can’t hide what you desire once you’re on it
Can’t fake what you can’t break up with, ooh
If you understand that a few years won’t erase it
Might die if you can’t live just to taste it (if you want)
Want-want what you want-want, then you want it
Oh, and if you got a moment, I want-want it
Want-want-want it, want it
And if you got another hour, I want all of it (if you want)
Don’t wanna wait another moment, I want-want it
Want-want-want it, want it
Don’t wanna wait another hour, I want all of it
Want-want, want
