When You Want Me Songtext
von Noël Coward

Verse

Barnaby:
I′ll have to get the bees and birds to tell you
That I've loved you from the start,
I simply haven′t got the words to tell you
What is truly in my heart,
Joking apart.


Refrain
When you want me-if you want me
Call me-call me-if you care.
When you need me-if you need me
Say so-say so-I'll be there.
I've nothing but my heart to bring to you,
No money but a questing mind,
But if this little song I sing to you
Means a thing to you
Please be kind.
When you′re lonely-if you′re lonely
Call me-call me-anyhow.
If you want me-need me-love me
Tell me,
Tell me,
Tell me now!

Nancy:
I'll love you longer than The Forsyte Saga
And I′ll tremble at your frown.

Barnaby:
I'd like to cable to Balenciaga
To prepare your wedding gown,
Don′t let me down.

Nancy: When you Barnaby: When you
Want me, Want me,
If you If you
Want me, Want me,
Call me, Call me,
Call me. Call me.

Nancy and Barnaby:
If you care.

Barnaby:
I've got an answer service.


Barnaby: When you Nancy: When you
Need me, Need me,
If you If you
Need me. Need me.
Say so, Say so.
Say so. Say so.

Nancy and Barnaby:
I′ll be there.

Nancy:
I want to make my feelings clear to you.
I've never felt like this before.

Barnaby:
I'd sacrafice my whole career to you
To be near you
Evermore.

Nancy and Barnaby:
When you′re lonely-if you′re lonely
Call me-call me-anyhow.

Nancy: You can reverse the charges.

Nancy and Barnaby:
If you want me-need me-love me
Tell me-tell me-here and now!

Barnaby:
I really haven't any good and chattels
But a beat-up Chevrolet.

Nancy:
I only know I′ve got a heart that rattles
Every time you look my way.

Nancy and Barnaby:
There's really nothing more to say
Escept that I should like to stay
With you for ever and a day.
Ole!
