I WANT TO SEE YOU

I want to see you tonight.
Please don't ask me WHY I want to see you tonight,
because, well, I don't tend to function well under that kind of pressure. But, but, but
I want to see you tonight. I REALLY want to see you tonight.

I want to see you tonight because
you complete parts of me I thought were missing, or, you know, didn't really know at all,
I want to see you tonight because I'm not sure I'll be able to sleep without it.
I want to see you tonight because things are better when you're around or when I think you're going to be around, or when there's the possibility that you MIGHT be around.

I want to see you tonight because I want to see you every night
and every day
and every moment in that little twilight period between
and that dawn period in the morning� I'm not sure what it's called�
maybe dawn, I dunno � but, I definitely want to see you tonight.

I want to see you tonight, please.
I want to see you tonight, I insist.
I want to see you tonight; make it so.
I want to see you tonight, because, because, because, well, I -
Dammit, I just want to see you tonight, all right?
