Bring the lyrics back to music
Directed by Kerry Washington, I want you is the 3rd single off Common's Finding Forever album. While its not a conscious song about "the times", its a love song that anyone can relate to. Common reminisces on his lost love (I been thinkin bout,I been thinkin bout,I been thinkin bout u lately) wondering and then realising where he went wrong 'Things seem to come up when I hear our song/Golden brown girl, it seem so long Since I heard your voice where did the king go wrong? and 'I spent many years tryna be the heartthrob
I guess it's only right that I got my heart robbed'
With other stand out lines like 'you don't know what you've got till its gone, yeah I like such and sucho a lot but the feeling's not as strong' and 'my friends say it was a change for the better
but I say, girl u changed my forever' this song hits home for people who've had love so good and lost it, hoping that by some miracle they can have it back.
