All I Ever Wanted Was You
Nick Wilson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I can't stand to see you stand alone,
follow my voice
'Cause it's you I want,
and you alone
can make everything fall into place,
all i ever wanted was you,
all i ever wanted was you,
there isn't anything left to prove,
cause all i ever wanted was you.
oooooh x4
Can't you see that ive made my mind up,
and its all for you,
you never really understand
till you see it close up,
but with you it was clear from my face,
all i ever wanted was you,
all i ever wanted was you,
there isnt anything left to prove,
cause all i ever wanted was you,
and i'll wait it out,
i will wait it out,
just to see you smile,
and i will wait it out
for you
and i'll wait it out,
i will wait it out,
just to see you smile,




and i will wait it out
for you
