N Sync Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You're all I ever needed, yeah
So tell me what to do now
'Cause I want you back
It's hard to say I'm sorry
It's hard to make the things I did undone
A lesson I've learned too well, for sure
I'm trying to figure out just what to do
I'm going crazy without you
You're all I ever wanted
You're all I ever needed, yeah
So tell me what to do now
When I want you back
Baby I remember
The way you used to look at me and say
Promises never last forever
I told you not to worry
I said that everything would be all right
I didn't know then that you were right
You're all I ever wanted
You're all I ever needed, yeah
So tell me what to do now
When I want you back
I want you back, oh yeah
You're the one I want
You're the one I need
Girl, what can I do
(You're the one I want)
(You're the one I need)
(Tell me, what can I do)
You're all I ever wanted
(You're the one I want)
You're all I ever needed
(You're the one I need)
So tell me what to do now
(Tell me, what can I do)
When I want you back
You're all I ever wanted
You're all I ever needed, yeah
So tell me what to do now
