Wants (Not What You Need)

WANTS (NOT WHAT YOU NEED) - Written by Carroll Bryant

I saw the lightening 

I heard the thunder 

I saw you standing there

I sat and wondered 

"It must be now!" My soul was screaming

Pinch me quick someone, I - I must be dreaming 

It went by oh, so fast, but God, it took so fucking long 

It should've lasted forever so how did it go so fucking wrong?

All I ever wanted was somebody to love me 

All I ever wanted was somebody to love 

All I ever wanted was somebody to save me 

Forgive me if I wanted too much

I'm sorry love wasn't enough 

A gift from heaven

A curse from hell 

What did it matter? 

How could we tell? 

All that was spoken was a mouthful of lies 

Now we know what happens when two fools collide 

Was sex such a nasty word?

I know I wanted you, but all I got was hurt 

I feel it now

All I ever wanted was somebody to love me 

All I ever wanted was somebody to love 

All I ever wanted was somebody to save me 

Forgive me if I wanted too much

I'm sorry love wasn't enough

Here I go again

Looking at the girl sleeping next to me

And yes, maybe I got her but

She isn't what I wanted or need 

And I know you won't believe it 

But so help me god it's true

Sometimes when I look down at her 

I could swear I'm looking down at you 

There's nothing I can do 

Pick up the pieces 

I guess I'll try

I won't forget you

At least until I die 

Who is to blame? We both get the credit 

To slip away, how did we let it? 

Was sex such a horrible word? 

How can I tell you how much this hurts?

It really fucking hurts 

All I ever wanted was somebody to love me 

All I ever wanted was somebody to love 

All I ever wanted was somebody to save me 

Forgive me if I wanted too much

I'm sorry love wasn't enough 

I feel it now
