What I Want

Sitting on a bench one day
An old man stumbled past me by
He turned to me, his body shaking and said,
“I'm too old for this life.”

But something in his eye was sparkling,
I saw a boy I've seen before.
Something in his eye was sparkling,
I saw a boy I used to know.

The spirit is, the spirit is forever young
Our hearts can stay, our hearts can stay forever loved.
If we want, if we want, if we want well...

I know what I want
I know what I want
I want to live forever
I want to live forever with you

Well riding in my car that night
And old man stuck his head outside
His tongue free-falling, ears like
Angels wings and spit flew side to side
But something in his eye was sparkling
Like a puppy's happy glow
Something in his eye was sparkling
I saw boy I've seen before.

The spirit is, the spirit is forever young
Our hearts can stay, our hearts can stay forever loved.
If we want, if we want, if we want well...

I know what I want
I know what I want
I want to live forever
I want to live forever with you

Tomorrow I could be that old man, if I don't act carefully.
These lines in my face are temporary I believe.
'Cause I plan to be a six-year-old however long I choose,
because I've said to you
I know, I know, I know.

Well, I know what I want
I know what I want
I want to live forever
I want to live forever with you
