Everything I Need
Moonchild Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You make me wanna stop
Settle down, stop
Going out, stop
Leaving town
You're everything I need, baby

You make me wanna stop
Wondering when, stop
Measuring, sway
With the wind
You're everything I need, baby

You're everything I need (Everything I need, everything I need)
Everything I need (Need)
You're everything I need (Everything I need, everything I need)
Everything I need

You make me wanna stop
Settle down, stop
Running round, roots
In the ground
You're everything I need, baby

You make me wanna stay
Order in, go
Tell a friend he's
Superman
You're everything I need, baby

You're everything I need (Everything I need, everything I need)
Everything I need (Need)
You're everything I need (Everything I need, everything I need)
Everything I need (Everything)
You're everything I need (Everything I need, everything I need)
Everything I need
You're everything I need (Everything I need, everything I need)
Everything I need (Yeah)

Everything




I need, yeah
Mmm

@Skyjuice70 Well said

@Placesandspaces35 haha..that's funny. She does look like she could be like that shy accountant. I guess that's one of the things that make Moonchild so special. They're nothing like the stereotypical or traditional look of a soul r&b band from the past. Eventhough the sound is sultry, you wont see them in laying back in flashy cars poping champagne or sporting diamonds or Amber in some booty shorts and low cut revealing blouse. She, the group are just too sophisticated for that and they're being themselves...but that fire and neosoul burns within them is real bright. Their style is mad dope.

Just with all the bad things happening before our eyes, it's nice to know, and reassuring, that there is hope, and happiness in this world. So thank you Moonchild for reminding of this with and endless amount of great music you share with us. Arigato.

One of the most underrated groups I've ever heard. Why this isn't mainstream music is beyond me.......pure musical dope for the ears only. Do it heavy.......Philly is listening......👏🏿✌🏿

Every once in a while, a phenomenon happens in music. Moonchild is precisely that. Dope Dope Dope. Amber is fierce with that pen bro. Her voice is the icing on the cake. Have you checked out the track they did with TBG (Tall Black Guy) a few years ago? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tKrZ0fa-1BA

You guys drop hit fire all the time. Your music takes me back to the point when I discovered neo soul for the first time. I'm forever a fan!

This is the kind of music that takes me from my reality. I feel like I'm riding some sorta cosmic neo soul wave. And I'm loving it. ❤️❤️❤️
