You were my everything
Chuckie Akenz Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

[21 Talking]
This goes out to someone that once was,
The most important person in my life,
Didn't realize that at the time,
Can't forgive myself for the way I treated you,
So, I don't really expect you to read this
It's just; I don't even know, just listen.
[Verse 1:]
You're the one that I want, the one that I need,
The one that I gotta have just to succeed,
When I first saw you, I knew it was real,
I'm sorry about the pain I made you feel.
It wasn't me; let me show you the way,
I look for the sun but its raining today.
I remember when I first looked into your eyes,
It was like God was there, heaven in the skies.
I wore with this scarf, coz I didn't wanna get hurt,
But I didn't know that I made everything worse.
You told me we were crazy in Love,
But you didn't care when push came to shove.
If you loved me as much as you said you did,
Then you wouldn't have hurt me like I aint shit.
Then you pushed me away like you didn't even knew me,
I love you with my heart, really and truly.
I guess you forgot all those times that we shared,
When I would run my fingers through your hair,
Late nights, just holding you in my arms,
I don't know how I could do you so wrong.

[Bridge:]
I really want to show you, I really need to hold you,
I really wanna know you, like no-one else can know you.
You're number one, always in my heart,
And now I can't believe that my love's torn apart

[Chorus:]
I need you and, I miss you and,
I want you and, I Love You coz,
I wanna hold you, I wanna kiss you
You were my everything and I really miss you
I need you and, I miss you and,
I want you and, I Love You coz,
I wanna hold you, I wanna kiss you
You were my everything and I really miss you

[Verse 2:]
I knew you were gonna sit,
And play this with your new man.
And then sit and laugh as you're holding his hands.
The thought of that, just shatters my heart,
It breaks in my soul when it tears me apart.
The time I was off, I was scared to show you,
Now I wanna hold you until I can't hold you.
Without you, everything seems strange,
Your name is forever, planted in my brain.
Tearing up in pain, take away the pain,
Take away the hurt, baby we can make it work
Wait about with you, looking through my eyes,
You told me you love me as you would hug me.
I guess everything, you said was a lie.
I think about it, it brings tears to my eyes.
Now when I leave, it leaves a thorn in your mind,
I can see clearly my love is not blind

[Chorus:]
I need you and, I miss you and,
I want you and, I Love You coz,
I wanna hold you, I wanna kiss you
You were my everything and I really miss you
I need you and, I miss you and,
I want you and, I Love You coz,
I wanna hold you, I wanna kiss you
You were my everything and I really miss you

[21 Talking:]
I wish everything could have turned out differently,
I had a special feeling about you,
I thought maybe you did too if you understand.
No matter what, you will always be in my heart,
You'll always be my baby.

[Verse 3:]
Our first date, it seemed so magical,
I remember all the times that I had with you.
Remember when you first came to my house,
You looked like an angel wearing that blouse.
We hit the door, I knew it was real.
But now I can't take all the pain that I feel.
Reaching your heart, I know I'm still there.
I don't wanna hear that you no longer care.
Remember the times, remember when we kissed,
I didn't think you will do me like this,
I didn't think you would see me depressed,
I thought you would be there for me,
This I confess.
You said you were my best friend, was that a lie,
Now I'm nothing to you, you're with another guy.
I tried, I tried, I tried and I'm trying.
Now on the inside it feels like I'm dying.

[Chorus:]
I need you and, I miss you and,
I want you and, I Love You coz,
I wanna hold you, I wanna kiss you
You were my everything and I really miss you
I need you and, I miss you and,
I want you and, I Love You coz,
I wanna hold you, I wanna kiss you
You were my everything and I really miss you

[21 Talking:]
And I do miss you,
I just thought we were meant to be.
I guess now we never know.
The only thing I want is for you to be happy,




Whether it will be with me, or without me,
I just want you to be happy
