All I Ever Wanted
Jaydee Bixby Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Slow down
Make it last
I'm having
The time of my life
And take a photograph
I don't want to leave
This behind
What seems
So out of reach
We're holding it
Right in our hands
Let's give up everything
Let's jump in
And never look back (2x)

Chorus:
This is all i ever wanted
But life got in my way
You're all i ever wanted
I didn't see how it
Could change
That something
Was missing until today

The city comes alive
As soon as you
Walk through the door
Another sleepless night
But i don't want
To sleep anymore
I don't want
To sleep anymore

(Chorus)

Climbing so high
Just don't look down
We can see everything
From here
For once in my life
Feet off the ground
I don't wanna
Come back down

Take a photograph
I'm having
The time of my life

This is all i ever wanted
But life got in my way
You're all i ever wanted
I didn't see how it
Could change
Nothing could
Get in the way
You're all i ever wanted
Didn't know




What i was missing
Until today

Capture this moment visually as a memory

I am not ready to leave this moment behind


This behind
This moment in time


What seems
What appears


So out of reach
Unattainable

Arrive


Another sleepless night
Yet another night without sleep

However, I am not willing


To sleep anymore
To miss out on this moment anymore


Climbing so high
Rising to great heights


Just don't look down
Avoid looking downwards to maintain confidence


We can see everything
The entire view is visible to us


From here
Our current position


For once in my life
For the first time ever


Feet off the ground
Elevated in the air


I don't wanna
I do not wish


Come back down
To return to the ground


Nothing could
Nothing was able to


Get in the way
Prevent from happening


Didn't know
Unaware


What i was missing
The void that I had not realized


Until today
Until now
