All I really want Is for you to want me And all you gotta be Is not so scared All you gotta do (all you gotta do) Is want me to want you (is want me to want you) And all you gotta be, is there I'm ready to begin (I'm ready to begin) So let me out, or let me in
CHORUS: 'Cause all I need Is a little excuse Just a ray of hope To hold on to
If all you really want Is for me to love you (is for me to love you) Then all you gotta do, is say If you really feel (if you really feel) Feel that you need me ('cause I need you) Then promise me, you'll stay I'm ready to begin (I'm ready to begin) So let me out, or let me in
CHORUS: 'Cause all I need Is a little excuse Just a ray of hope To hold on to
Tell me where to stand, and I'll be fine Tell me what to say, I'll read my lines But don't leave me here to wait When I'm cold, and you're lonely
CHORUS: 'Cause all I need Is a little excuse Just a ray of hope To hold on to
From your lips, a sound That can break me down So tell me something good 'Cause all I need 'Cause all I need Is a little excuse Is a little excuse Is a little excuse
