M with the I with the S T double E Q
All I want is to be with you
Mis-Teeq with the one Sunship
DJ number 1 selecta

Aah aah aah....etc
All I want is to be with you
But I just got to live, live my own life too
All I need to know
(Need to know that the) That the world is mine
I snap my fingers (fingers)
And everything is fine, that's all

Firing it up and away we go
Sitting looking in the mirror
Like Alice through the looking glass
Life's a never ending journey
Be careful not to go too fast

Sometimes I can't help myself
From falling in too deep
I know it may be hard to tell
You're love is calling me

Aah, all I want to be, ah
And away we go
Aah, all I want is
Gonna get up on the mic, gonna make you wind

Aah, all I want to be, ah
And away we go
Aah, all I want is
Gonna get up on the mic, gonna make you wind

All I want is to be with you
But I just got to live, live my own life too
All I need to know
(Need to know that the) That the world is mine
I snap my fingers (fingers)
And everything is fine, that's all

Floating on a river of dreams
On a magic carpet ride
Take control of my destiny
I know it's just a matter of time
That I will find that Midas touch
And everything will turn to gold
It would mean nothing without you here to hold

Aah, all I want to be, ah
And away we go
Aah, all I want is
Gonna get up on the mic, gonna make you wind

Aah, all I want to be, ah
And away we go
Aah, all I want is
Gonna get up on the mic, gonna make you wind

All I want is to be with you
But I just got to live, live my own life too
All I need to know
(Need to know that the) That the world is mine
I snap my fingers (fingers)
And everything is fine

I can read it in the stars
That what I want is who you are
I will let my hair down for you
A thousand times to show you

That when you reach me at the top
I'm gonna give you all I got
And wherever we will go
Our hearts will follow

Get up get up on the Mis-Teeq flex
Lyrically blessed I solve the contest
As we rise again with a brand new trend
Here I go again, we rinse the weekend

The money the making
The record the breakin'
Are you awake when my mics in check
Vibe to the rhythm with the tune on the decks

Go on Sabrina on your marks get set
It's a UK thing, style that we bring
Go underground let the journey begin
We're the Mis-Teeq, We're in chorus we sing

Quick off the mark, ring a-ding-ding ding
In a mix with a bag of tricks
Feel the vibe with the one Sunship, boom!
Move to the beat it's about music
Roll through these tracks with our fresh tactics

All I want is to be with you
But I just got to live, live my own life too
All I need to know
(Need to know that the) That the world is mine
I snap my fingers (fingers)
And everything is fine

All I want is to be with you
But I just got to live, live my own life too
All I need to know
(Need to know that the) That the world is mine
I snap my fingers (fingers)
And everything is fine, that's all

Firing it up and away we go
Boy I want to be with you
I want to live my own life too
But I got to have it all
That's all, that's all, that's all
And when I snap my fingers
Everything is fine, I want to have it all
