You're All I Want
David Hasselhoff Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When you want someone to lean on
You can always count on me
I'll be there to make you happy
That's a lifetime guaranty
And when you're frightened, I'll protect you
Keep you safe from pain
I'm your friend, and I'm your lover
Your shelter from the rain

You're all I want, you're all I wanna live for
You're all I want, and you're everything I love
You're the reason I exist, and I knew it from the first time that we kissed

When your heart has need of healing, I'll be there to take your hand
Let me be the one you turned to, I will always understand
I only want to keep you smilin', kiss the tears away
Wanna give you all you dream of, and hold you night and day

You're all I want, you're all I wanna live for
You're all I want, and you're everything I love
You're the reason I exist, and I knew it from the first time that we kissed

When you're with me, there will be no such thing as sorrow
We can leave those dark and lonely days behind
Depend on me, I need you too a bright tomorrow
All your life, through all you do
I'll be there loving you

You're all I want, you're all I wanna live for
You're all I want, and you're everything I love




You're the reason I exist, and I knew it from the first time that we kissed
You're the reason I exist, and I knew it from the first time that we kissed
