lyrics

C#
Like a bluebird, I wanna fly high above
C#/G# F#
To catch you in the sky
C#
Like a big bear, but I don't need no honey
C#/G# F#
Just hold you in my arms
G# G#7
That's good enough for me

F# G#
I want you in the summertime
C# F#
I want you in the spring
G#
I want you when the day is long
C# F#
I want you when night falls
G#
There ain't no time
C# C#/G# F#
I don't think of you

C#
So don't you see how I feel towards you
C#/G# F#
Oh you should trust your eyes
C#
So no one else, and no kind of circumstances
C#/G# F#
Will keep me away from you
G# G#7
I want you to realise

F# G#
I want you in the wintertime
C# F#
I want you in autumn
G#
I want you when the night is long
C# F#
I want you when day’s done
G#
There ain't no time
C# B
I don't think of you

A E G#
In and out of your heart, you know it's killing me
A E G# G#7
If I could be with you somehow, my life would be complete

(chorus)

G#
I want you in the here and now
F# G#
I want you in the here and now
F# A B C#
I want you in the HERE AND NOW...
