Texas are Scottish band fronted by singer Sharleen Spiteri. The band was founded by Johnny McElhone taking their name from the 1984 Wim Wenders movie Paris, Texas. Their musical sound went from blues rock from debut album Southside (1989), via blue eyed soul of White on Blonde (1997) to the disco pop of their most recent release Red Book (2005). Sharleen Spiteri (vocals, guitar), Ally McErlaine (guitar), Johnny McElhone (bass) have survived all line ups. In 1994, Ellen DeGeneres requested the use of the Texas track "So Called Friend" as the theme tune for her self-titled ABC Comedy Show.

Love Dream #2 Lyrics

Texas

You know there are times when you impress me
When you don’t even try
You say you’d get along without me
I know that’s something you deny

I know that you just want me to stay
Don’t need pretending you can find your own way
Just listen to the words that i say
If you could, i’d be understood

I’d love you to love me
Yes i’d love you to love me too
Are you sharing my thoughts
Cos i’d love you to love me too

Come over here, give me a shoulder
How many times have you turned love
I’ve all this love here to give you
I still need some in return

I know that you just want me to stay
Don’t need pretending you can find your own way
Just listen to the words that i say
If you could, i’d be understood

I’d love you to love me
Yes i’d love you to love me too
Are you sharing my thoughts
Cos i’d love you to love me too

I know that you just want me to stay
Don’t need pretending you can find your own way
Just listen to the words that i say
If you could, i’d be understood

I’d love you to love me
Yes i’d love you to love me too
Are you sharing my thoughts
Cos i’d love you to love me too

I need you to need me
Yes i need you to see it through
Are you sharing my thoughts
Cos i need you to need me too
