i just want you
Give me a heart to hold the godlike truth Give me one good soul that I can tell it through Give me good reason to believe in you And give me strength if you have time Give me two hands that'll hold us up And though you give me no more than just enough You gave a pair of brown eyes that could call a good love To somebody who thinks they shine You, I just want you I just want you Spend most of my life on a microphone Giving all that I got til I back home And when the lights go out, and I'm all alone I've got no reason to be crying And on a bad day I feel like a masochist Take it away from me if it's for the best Somehow I've ended up the head of this Freight train that isn't mine You, I just want you I just want you So take it all away If it isn't meant for me I don't want the easy way I just want you They can give me everything But at the end of the day The only words I'll say Is "I just want you" OOh, mm, mm It's all so simple when you break it all down Two roads converged down the hollow ground It's taken all my life to hear the sacred sound Of sweet simplicity Saying "Give it all back, it don't mean a thing" You got a short-lived life and a song to sing And the only way up is believing And never looking down So take it all away If it isn't meant for me I don't want the easy way I just want you They can give me everything But at the end of the day The only words I'll say Is "I just want you" You, you, you You, you, you, mm
