When there’s fear and insecurity on one side but strength, boldness and positivity on the other side that has you wondering who will win or can this work out – Luther’s got you covered with…
This hidden gem is sitting on Luther’s Any Love album.
It’s a smooth, soulful song full of rhythm. The lyrics speak of understanding the insecurities that one may have which is blocking a potential romance. “I Know You Want To” also captures the honest desire of wanting to care for, love and protect your partner and their love. This declaration clearly exclaims “When you stop being scared and running I am definitely here waiting, willing and ready to heal your broken heart, put you back together then love you forever.”

When Luther asks the question “Is it worth it all, if there’s no love?” What will your answer be?
.
[Verse 1]
If only I could read your mind
I could heal your broken heart
I could mend you when you’re falling apart
I wanna love you
I wanna care
But there’s not a thing that I can do
Not until you say that you want me there
[Pre-Chorus]
And that you want me to love you forever
I know it’s what you want
Though it’s easy to say that you don’t
[Chorus]
I know you want to
Girl, I know you want to
I’m not ashamed to say to you
(You’re all I’ve ever wanted)
I know you want to
Girl, I know you want to
So turn around, come to me now
Is it worth it all if there’s no love?
Love, no no no no love…
.
[Verse 2]
I hear your heartbeat
I feel you shiver
And in the stillness of the night
(I can hear the angels singing to me)
She wants to love you
She wants to care
But she’s so afraid of a broken heart
(She’s afraid to fall)
Will someone be there?
[Pre-Chorus]
Well, I’ll pick you up and put you together
I know it’s what you want
Though you constantly say that you don’t
[Chorus]
I know you want to
Girl, I know you want to
I am not ashamed to say to you
(You’re all I’ve ever wanted)
I know you want to
Girl, I know you want to
So turn around, come to me now
Is it worth it all if there’s no love?
.
[Bridge]
Do you spend every moment trying to hide out?
From the way you know you truly feel
And is it really real, you know
How can you keep denying that you really love me
You can try to fool somebody else
But you’re lying to yourself
[Chorus]
I know you want to
Girl, I know you want to
I’m not ashamed to say to you
(You’re all I’ve ever wanted)
I know you want to
Girl, I know you want to
So turn around, come to me now
Is it worth it all if there’s no love? To, To
(You’re all I’ve ever wanted)
I know you want to
Girl, I know you want to
So turn around, come to me now
Is it worth it all if there’s no love?
No love, no love…ooh
