Some guys want the corner office. Some guys want a million followers. He wants her fingertips running down his chest and that look she gives when she's halfway through the door. This is his answer to her song — what he craves over everything the world is offering him. They can knock the pictures off the wall. They'll fix them in the morning.

Lyrics
[Intro]
[Spoken] People ask me what I want. Like it's complicated. It's not complicated.

[Verse 1]
Some guys want the corner office, some guys want the car
Some guys want the VIP and a table at the bar
Some guys want a million followers to tell 'em they're the best
Me? I want your fingertips running down my chest
I want that look you give me when you're halfway through the door
The one that says stop talking and get over here, what are you waiting for

[Chorus]
Let me just crave you
That's all I want tonight
Forget the noise, forget the stage
You're my only appetite
Let me just crave you
Your skin on mine, your hands in my hair
Some people crave the spotlight, baby
I just crave you standing there
Let me crave you tonight

[Verse 2]
I've played a hundred cities and they're screaming out my name
But the sound I want to hear is you laughing down the hallway with no shame
I like the way you pull me close and tell me "not so fast"
Then change your mind and grab my shirt like nothing good should last
We can knock the pictures off the wall, we'll fix 'em in the morning
The best part of the evening is when neither one of us is being boring
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Now I don't need it perfect, I don't need it planned
I just need you laughing, tangled up, and telling me I'm your man
We can be a little rough, we can be a little sweet
As long as we're both breathing hard and tripping over our own feet
This thing we've got, it isn't careful — and I don't want it to be
You pull my hair, I'll pull yours back
That's what I call equality

[Chorus]
Let me just crave you
That's all I want tonight
Forget the money, forget the fame
You're my only appetite
Let me just crave you
Your laugh, your skin, the way you bite
Some people crave the easy life, baby
I just crave the way we fight
To get closer every night

[Outro]
Let me crave you
Let me crave you tonight

[Spoken] Yeah. That's it. That's the whole list.
