I want to know you

 

I want to know you

Not in the, “yeah we’re friends she’s great” way

All of you

 

I want to know your favorite book and why

I want to know what makes you smile

And how you want to be asked to prom

I want to know where you want to go to college

And if you want kids

 

I want to know your favorite color

And ice cream

And do you like dogs or cats?

Or both?

 

I want to know what inspires you

And what makes you excited

I want to hold you while you come undone

 

I want to know why you dance

And how you look when you first wake up

Do you drink coffee or tea?

I bet it’s tea

And that just makes me like you more

 

I want to know if you like it when it rains

Or if you’ve ever gone skiing

And do you believe in God?

 

I want to know your deepest fears and secrets

And be there for you when it hurts

 

I want to be the person you call your best friend

And that you love

I want that

 

I want you
