I Want You
I Want You
The last
time I saw her
Was the
night she said good-bye
She said
that love's a stranger
And it's
sure to pass you by (yes, she did)
As she
packed up her belongings
Baby
wouldn't look me in the eye
But I could
see a tear roll off her face
As we both
tried so hard
Not to cry she said
I never wanted the stars
Never shot for the moon
I like them
right where they are
All I
wanted was you
So baby
just turn away
Cause I
can't face the truth
All I'm
trying to say is
All I
wanted was you
I tried so
hard to remember
Where when
how why love went away
I tried to
drown myself in pity
But your
memory kept calling my name (yes, it did)
I bought
you fancy cars and diamond rings
Baby all
the things that money brings
And the
servants to paint the skies blue
And I
worked so hard seven days a week
Built a
fortress for your heart to keep
If I could
I'd wrap these words up for you
I never wanted the stars
Never shot for the moon
I like them
right where they are
All I
wanted was you
So baby
just turn away
Cause I
can't face the truth
All I'm
trying to say is
All I
wanted was you
I want you
I want you
Baby, I want you
But never
thought you were alone
I filled
the party up with company
But never
made our house a home
All I got
is my guitar these chords and the truth
All I got
is my guitar ... but all I want, baby all I want
I never wanted the stars
Never shot for the moon
I like them
right where they are
All I wanted
was you
So baby
just turn away
Cause I
can't face the truth
All I'm
trying to say is
All I
wanted was you
I want you
I want you
Baby, I want you...
