問題

We were both headed different ways

 Both in a rush, trying to get away

 I ran into you

 Like a crash of thunder

 Out in the rain waiting for the bus

 We started talking 'bout different stuff

 And it's true

 There's an eighth world wonder

 And from now on

 You're not as ([1]                 ) as you think you are

 I'm trying to tell you

 Anything you want boy

 I can make it happen

 We could fall in love and I could be your sweetie

 Anytime of day boy

 I'll be your distraction

 We can make it happen

 I could be your sweetie, sweetie

 I'm trying to tell you

 Anything you want boy

 I can make it happen

 We could ([2]            ____ ____ ) and

 I'm gonna kiss you now

意味確認

lonely  形容詞　孤独な

fall in love  恋に落ちる、恋をする

from now on　これから先

try to　～しようと試みる、努める

ever      副詞　これまでに

satisfaction　名詞　満足

→　動詞は　satisfy 満足させる　これは高校生は知っていないとまずい単語です。

Anything you need     

→あなたが必要なこと（どれでも）

Anything you want

→あなたが欲しいこと

Anything you like   

→あなたが好きなこと

ここで意識して欲しいのは、anyが肯定文で使われると強調の意味をもち「どんな～でも」になることです。したがって、今回のanythingはどれでもという意味を込めて訳して下さい。

後はyou need (want,like)が前の単語を修飾（説明）していることを瞬時に読み取ってください。

I’m too tired to study

→私は疲れすぎて勉強できません。

　私は勉強するには疲れすぎています。

この文は、定番中の定番、too ~ to do　の文ですね。

意味は　～すぎてdoできない。　doするには～すぎるです。

どちらも否定の意味が含まれているので気をつけましょう。
