All I Want
Oscar and the Wolf Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Cos you're a-a-a-a-all I want in a girl
Cos you're a-a-a-a-all I need in this world
I see the way you flaunt it
Yeah you're everything I've wanted
So baby won't you just give me your word

No harsh words, I got nothing to be mad about
Life's pretty good, yeah nothing to be sad about
So come on baby let it out and you and me go walkabout
I know you got a man, yet I'm the one you talking about
Taking you away with me is something that I've thought about
Laugh at all the silly little shit we ever fought about
Sunshine days as we suck down jays as we laugh for days about the silly shit I thought aloud
The summer sun is calling now, you know we never falling out
You and me, eternity, at least that's what I'm talking now
Sitting on the beach wearing nothing but a smile
You're the best that's happened to the boy in a while
In the street or the club girl you know I feel your style
You're the head of the pack by at least a country mile
You're my number one, write it down so it's on file
So baby hold it down until we walking down the aisle

Cos you're a-a-a-a-all I want in a girl
Cos you're a-a-a-a-all I need in this world
I see the way you flaunt it
Yeah you're everything I've wanted
So baby won't you just give me your word

I'll write a little poetry so you can get to knowing me
Have a little giggle at the YouTube clips you showing me
I said baby, baby, just what do you intend?
Now you're laughing out loud, and winking at me knowingly
And later baby maybe I can take you back to mine
I got a pretty little courtyard and a little bit of wine
Sing and dance and laugh until we lose all track of time
And you can fall asleep on me, your hand curled up in mine
We could be forever we don't have to be pretend
I don't see a reason why we ever gotta end
I'ma take you everywhere, show you to my friends
And when I see them bubbles always hope you're hitting send
You can have my last name, or you can keep your own
I just wanna change your name to 'wifey' in my phone
Baby be my queen and you can join me on my throne
Think about girl, when you decide just let me know

Cos you're a-a-a-a-all I want in a girl
Cos you're a-a-a-a-all I need in this world
I see the way you flaunt it
Yeah you're everything I've wanted
So baby won't you just give me your word

Baby baby baby, you're always on my mind
Never met a lady like you before, so sexy yes so fine
Rolling up the east coast, got you by my side
Never met a lady so beautiful
You're all I want

Cos you're a-a-a-a-all I want in a girl
Cos you're a-a-a-a-all I need in this world
I see the way you flaunt it




Yeah you're everything I've wanted
So baby won't you just give me your word

The song "All I Want" by Oscar and the Wolf is a love song about a man who is completely enamored by a woman. He declares that she is everything he wants and needs in a girl and in the world. He is taken by the way she flaunts herself and everything about her is what he's ever desired. He begs her to give him her word, even though he knows that she is already with someone else.


The lyrics convey a sense of infatuation and fascination. The man is deeply in love, and he is ready to show it and share his life with this woman. He sees a future with her and can imagine himself spending endless sunshine days with her. He is so sure that he wants to take her back to his place, play music, dance, and laugh until they lose track of time.

I'm here 
woohoow x4 
come and hear the siren 
come on let's run 
with our excitement 
come on let's run 
open your eyes like a sparrow 
come on let's try 
it gets cold and gets bolder in here 
All we want is the moon x3 
I'm here 
woohoow x3 
can you see through walls 
I want to try 
but I watch your toes move 
and all the time 
open your eyes like a sparrow 
come on let's try 
it gets cold and gets bolder in here 
All we want is the moon x3 
Is that all you want now 
eehee x2 
Is that all you want x2 
Is that all you want now 
eehee x2
