What I Want Lyrics
[Chorus: Morgan Wallen]
She said, “You don’t want this heart, boy, it’s already broke”
Told me everything she touch just goes up in smoke
Only stay a couple nights, then she gon’ be gone
I said, “Baby, you should know that’s what I want”

That’s what I want, that’s what I want
That’s what I want, that’s what I want, that’s what I want
What I want
[Verse 1: Morgan Wallen]
Nah, you ain’t gotta worry ’bout no trust issues with me
I got ’em too, I got ’em too
Nah, you ain’t gotta worry ’bout no exes, that’s crazy
I got ’em too, you know I do
[Pre-Chorus: Morgan Wallen]
If you’re in a hurry
Nah, you ain’t gonna hurt me tonight
And it won’t be the worst thing
If this is all it is and in the middle of a kiss

What I Want Lyrics Meaning
[Chorus: Morgan Wallen]
She’s being honest and telling him that her heart is already broken and she’s not good at relationships—everything she gets close to seems to fall apart. She doesn’t stay long, just for a night or two, then moves on. But instead of being scared off, he says that’s exactly what he’s looking for right now.
[Post-Chorus: Morgan Wallen]
He’s just repeating that this kind of short-term, no-strings connection is really what he wants. He’s not looking for anything deep or lasting—just something casual and easy.
[Verse 1: Morgan Wallen]
He’s telling her not to stress about trust or past relationships because he’s been through the same things. He’s got his own issues and baggage, just like she does, so there’s no pressure or judgment from his side.
[Pre-Chorus: Morgan Wallen]
He’s saying if she’s in a rush or not looking for anything serious, that’s okay. She won’t break his heart, and if this is just a moment between them, even during a kiss, he’s cool with that.
[Chorus: Morgan Wallen & Tate McRae, Morgan Wallen]
She’s warning again that she’s emotionally messed up and only sticks around briefly. She doesn’t want him to expect anything lasting. But he keeps saying that’s totally fine with him—it’s actually what he wants too. He’s not trying to change her or fix her; he’s just here for the moment.
[Post-Chorus: Morgan Wallen & Tate McRae, Morgan Wallen, Tate McRae]

[Verse 2: Tate McRae]
She’s making it clear there’s no emotional fallout if they pretend to be lovers just for a night or two. And after that, it’s okay to go back to being strangers like it never happened. She’s not expecting anything more than just that brief connection.
[Pre-Chorus: Tate McRae, Morgan Wallen & Tate McRae, Morgan Wallen]
She reassures him that he doesn’t need to worry—she’s not going to hurt him. If this is just a one-night thing, that’s alright. And then, even knowing all that, they still share another kiss, caught in the moment.
[Chorus: Morgan Wallen & Tate McRae, Tate McRae, Morgan Wallen]
She repeats that her heart’s already damaged and anything she touches tends to fall apart, so she won’t stick around long. He keeps saying that’s exactly what he wants—no pressure, no expectations.

And once again, he says that’s all he’s looking for anyway.
[Post-Chorus: Morgan Wallen & Tate McRae, Morgan Wallen, Tate McRae]
