Keep telling yourself I want you
Like I’ve wanted nobody else
Keep telling yourself I need you
Got your picture on my shelf
Keep telling yourself the only one
Who I want right beside me
Whether we’re in heaven or a living hell
Cause you’d be right as raindrops
I need you like songs need more cowbell
We met when we were younger
Your bright blue eyes hooked me in good
Your laughter kept me in stitches
That’s why I’ve done everything I could
To keep you close, to love you the most
Because I wanted you to be forever mine
Your kisses taste better than any beer
Or any bottle of Napa Valley wine
So
Keep telling yourself I want you
Like I’ve wanted nobody else
Keep telling yourself I need you
Got your picture on my shelf
Keep telling yourself the only one
Who I want right beside me
Whether we’re in heaven or a living hell
Cause you’d be right as raindrops
I need you like songs need more cowbell
When we’re out on the country road
And when we’re cuddlin’ on the couch
When we’re hangin out in our backyard
When I’m feelin’ like Oscar the Grouch
You give me light n lovin & turtledovin’
And with just one passionate kiss
I feel like I can slay every single demon
With your peace and unremitting bliss
Keep telling yourself I want you
Like I’ve wanted nobody else
Keep telling yourself I need you
Got your picture on my shelf
Keep telling yourself the only one
Who I want right beside me
Whether we’re in heaven or a living hell
Cause you’d be right as raindrops
I need you like songs need more cowbell
I need you like songs need more cowbell
