All I Want
David G. Moore Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

All I want is you
All I need is you
Liar liar in my bed
You're filling up my pretty, pretty head
You're telling me things that I want to hear
I'm enraptured

Fire fire in my heart

You're tearing me, you're tearing me,
you're tearing me apart
Showing me things that I want to feel
I am captured

This road's got to end soon
See it's taking the better part of me

Fire fire in my heart
It's tearing me, it's tearing me
It's tearing me apart
Telling me things that I want to hear
You've got me tellin' it
my mind is set a reelin'

I don't need some picture-framed
photograph
To save me
When it keeps coming back to this

All I want is you
All I need is you
My heart's a reelin' and I don't know what
I'm feelin'

I don't need some picture-framed
photograph
To save me
When it keeps coming back to this

All I want is you
All I need is you

Won't you give it to me
Come on give it to me
