All I Need Is You
Jeffrey James Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Now that the moment's right
Now I can spend my life
Just holding on to you
And all
All that I can take
Is more than you could break
So don't you be afraid
And I'll always try
Got nothing to hide
And I'll be waiting
Waiting for love I can breathe in
Love that'll wash over my skin
Till it's all I feel
So won't you show me
Show me that woman who know's me
Woman who know's all that I'll need
All I need
All I need is you
You with all perfect touch
You've never given up
On me
And I'll do my best
To wear my heart on my chest
And I have been waiting
Waiting for love I can breathe in
The love that'll wash over my skin
Till it's all I feel
So won't you show me
Show me that woman who knows me
Woman who knows all that I need
All I need
All I need
All I need
All I need is you
All I need
Is you

And now
At this moment in time
Now that the moment's right
Since the timing is perfect
Now I can spend my life
I am ready to devote my life
Just holding on to you
By simply grasping onto you

To wear my heart on my chest
To show my emotions openly
All I need is you
You alone suffice for me
All I need
Nothing else is necessary
All I need
No other requirement
All I need is you
You are the only one I require

I was looking for a song that most people wasn't use to hearing at weddings. I looked at some wedding videos and discovered this song. I had to find out who sing it. I have never heard of Jeffery James until now. Just the kind of music and words I was looking for. And that voice, blew me away. Reminds me of Michael Bolton. I am using this song for my entry song. Love, love, love this song. I cant stop playing it.
