All You Need
Victoria Monét Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Not a lot of people touch my mind
But you've been there a million times
Now I'm seeing in diamonds, hearing in silence
Baby, that's 'cause of you
And, ooh, I couldn't change it if I tried
Just to swim in the fountain of you, ooh
Maybe I'll be the one that you meet heaven with
And, ooh, make a little hideout in the sky
I wanna be all you need
All you need
All you need
All you need
I wanna be all you need
All you need
All you need
All you need
Feels just like a summer rain (like a summer rain)
Ain't no stress, no complaints
That's why I'm seeing forever
Life gets better when I'm right there with you
So let's make this love a figure eight
Baby, I'd catch the words as they drip from your lips
Just to swim in the fountain of you, ooh
Maybe I'll be the one that you meet heaven with
And, ooh, make a little hideout in the sky
I wanna be all you need
All you need
All you need
All you need
I wanna be all you need
All you need
All you need
All you need
There's so many things you add to my life (Like a summer rain)
Every time I see you smile
You got me seeing forever
Life gets better when I'm right there with you
And I hope deep in your heart you feel the same, oh
I wanna be all you need (all you need)
All you need
All you need (you need)
All you need (all you need, yeah)
I wanna be all you need (baby, just you and me)
All you need
All you need (you need, oh)
All you need
Feel forever life gets better when I'm right there with you
