Story Behind the Song
It was fall in the year 1999 when I heard the starting theme of a Dream Theater song, and from there I got a new idea for a song. It took me two years to finish the composition, and I had it on ice for a year after that before I recorded it in May, 2002. It took me two days to record this track. A couple of takes, a couple of arguements, and some cups of coffee later the track was finished.
Lyrics
Wanna be with you
Tekst & Melody: Sigurd Norbye
Some time ago, we used to walk around together,
Tide high or low, no matter how the stormy weather,
If you had told me something was rong, I would have died to make it right,
If you had shown me that hope was on, I`d of done anything to try,
But now I wrote you hole this song, so it won`t be long before you know,
I just gotta make this right
We`ll never know what could of happened.
The door is closed, and we`re done apart.
Faith has a way in our lives`we`re trapped, and
I`m feeling good but not so smart.
Now, I don`t know what my life`ll be like,
whatever happens, I`ll be just a guy,
but you should know what I really feel like,
and that it makes me wonder why,
and that it makes me wanna cry.
If I could meet the Rolling Stones, have a coffee and be rood
If I could throw a party on for all the neighbourhood
Happyness`d still be gone, it wouldn`t do no good
I say i know that I`m just a wannabe, but I wanna be with you
I say I know I`m just a wannabe, that want`s to be with you
Thats what I wanna do
Now I`m alone, somebody`s robbed my only baby
And now I know, that I`m not even like a maybe,
I got no pictures of you, all I have is in my head,
And back at our old playground, all we had is dead,
Now I`m cryin out inside, for my longlost bride,
cause I dreamt that we would one day wed.
( and I said to myself)
that If you go, then I will never know
And I`m`a blow
Somebody, come, make me know
Hey, I`m no wannabe, but hey I just wanna be
Truce for all wannabe`s to be
You see the wannabe in me
Somebody come make me free
Except for Jesus Christ and God, you have rocked my world,
Your feminism shocked me of, I`ve lost my only girl,
What damage can a beaty cause, looking like a pearl
I say i know that I`m just a wannabe, but I wanna be with you
I say I know I`m just a wannabe, that want`s to be with you
Thats what I wanna do
I wanna be with you
Yeah, thats what I wanna do
I wanna be with you
