I Only Wanted
Doesn't it ever stayMust it always fade awayCouldn't love ever beSomething tangible and realFarewell, fairweather friendAbandonment returns to taunt me again
I only wanted you to stayLinger and mean the words you saidFoolishly I romanticizedSomeone was saving my lifeFor the first timeI only wanted you to be there when IOpened up my eyes
I was caught in your masqueradeWish I'd stayed beneath my veilBut it just seemed so easy toOpen up myself to youOnce more into the windThe embers scatterAnd the chill settles in
I only wanted you to stayLinger and mean the words you saidFoolishly I romanticizedSomeone was saving my lifeFor the first timeI only wanted you to be there when IOpened up my eyes
OhI only wanted you to stayLinger and mean the words you saidFoolishly I romanticizedSomeone was saving my lifeFor the first timeI only wanted you to beThe one to get me through that night
I only wanted youTo be there when IOpened up my eyesOhDoesn't it ever stay?I only wanted you toStay
