You Really Want Me
A sultry voice leads this UNPLUGGED arrangement with warm, close-miked vocals over intimate acoustic guitar. Subtle finger percussion and gentle upright bass support the melody, while sparse piano fills accentuate the atmosphere. Minimalist texture keeps focus on the expressive delivery.

Lyrics
Verse 1
You were folding up your apron
Name tag hanging by a thread
I was cashing out my paycheck
Talking big
But seeing red
You said
"One more drink
Then maybe"
I said
"Make it two instead"
Funny how a tired Tuesday
Turned to waking in your bed
Chorus
Don’t you want me
Baby?
Say you do
Say you still do
Tell me that you’re crazy
For the mess I make of you
Don’t you want me lately?
Or did I dream the way you looked right through me?
Don’t you want me
Baby?
Don’t you want me
Baby?
Verse 2
Now your records in my kitchen
Still smell like your cheap cologne
All your sweaters on my chair backs
Like you never left this home
You keep posting from the rooftop
Laughing loud with someone new
But you linger in my mirror
When I’m getting dressed for you
Chorus
Don’t you want me
Baby?
Say you do
Say you still do
Tell me that you’re crazy
For the mess I make of you
Don’t you want me lately?
Or did I dream the way you pulled me closer?
Don’t you want me
Baby?
Don’t you
Don’t you
Don’t you?
Bridge
You can change your number
You can change your hair
But that first soft thunder
Still hangs in the air
If I cross your mind
In the quiet
Tell me
Chorus
Don’t you want me
Baby?
Say you do
Say you still do
Tell me that you’re crazy
For the mess I make of you (oh)
Don’t you want me lately?
Or did we fade into a faded story?
Don’t you want me
Baby?
Don’t you want me
Baby?
