[Verse 1]
I bet you think that it's sweeter on the other side
I bet you think you're nicer than the other guys
Well, why don't you go and find out for yourself?
Don't let the door hit you on the way out
[Pre-Chorus]
You'll take two days
You'll think you're done and moving on
And I'll take two months
To move along so once you're gone, then you'll be gone
So, goodbye, I'm telling you
I won't cry about you anymore
[Chorus]
No, but I bet you'll want me
When you're out there feeling sorry, feeling lonely
When you're out there trying so hard to replace me
I know you'll come crawling back down on your knees
I bet you'll want me
[Post-Chorus]
Ah-ah, I
Ah-ah, I
Ah-ah, I
I bet you'll want me
Ah-ah, I
Ah-ah, I
Ah-ah, I
I bet you'll want me
[Verse 2]
When you're thirty-five, you make some girl your wife
I'm sure you will think it's fine until you think back to the time
When you were twenty-five, you had me in your life
You don't know just what you got, but you will realise
[Pre-Chorus]
You'll take two days
You'll think you’re done and moving on
And I'll take two months
To move along so once you're gone, then you'll be gone
So, goodbye, I'm telling you
I won't cry about you anymore
[Chorus]
No, but I bet you'll want me
When you're out there feeling sorry, feeling lonely
When you're out there trying so hard to replace me
I know you'll come crawling back down on your knees
I bet you'll want me
[Post-Chorus]
Ah-ah, I
Ah-ah, I
Ah-ah, I
I bet you'll want me
Ah-ah, I
Ah-ah, I
Ah-ah, I
I bet you'll want me
[Outro]
When I move on with my life and I meet someone nice
I bet you'll want me
Then, when your love life is sad and I don't want you back
I bet you'll want me
U Want Me was written by Cate & Joshua Wilkinson & Navvy.
U Want Me was produced by Karl-Frederik Reichhardt.
I wrote “U Want Me” with my friends Navvy and Josh Wilkinson last summer! My friend had just gone through a breakup and I had a similar thing the year before. We were joking that the people we were seeing moved on really quickly but then months later regretted it – where we moved on a bit slower but...
