I wanna go with you
To that other world
The one your love takes me to
I wanna go with you.

I wish I were glass
So you could see through
Then you'd know before you ask
That I wanna go with you.

I wanna go with you
To that other world
The one your love takes me to
I wanna go with you

You take me away
To a world I never knew
But what else can say
I wanna go with you.

I wanna go with you
To that other world
The one your love takes me to
I wanna go with you.

The one your love takes me to
I wanna go with you
