I Only Wanted |
| La, da, da, da mmm |
| Doesn’t it ever stay |
| Must it always fade away |
| Couldn’t love ever be |
| Something tangible and real |
| Farewell, fairweather friend |
| Abandonment returns to taunt me again |
| I only wanted you to stay |
| Linger and mean the words you said |
| Foolishly I romanticized |
| Someone was saving my life |
| For the first time |
| I only wanted you to be there when I |
| Opened up my — eyes |
| I was caught in your masquerade |
| Wish I’d stayed beneath my veil |
| But it just seemed so easy to |
| Open up myself to you |
| Once more into the wind |
| The embers scatter |
| And the chill settles in |
| I, I only wanted you to stay |
| Linger and mean the words you said |
| Foolishly I romanticized |
| Someone was saving my life |
| For the first time |
| I only wanted you to be there when I |
| Opened up my eyes |
| Ah da, da, da, da, da |
| Oh I only wanted you to stay |
| Linger and mean the words you said |
| Foolishly I romanticized |
| Someone was saving my life |
| For the first time |
| I only wanted you to be |
| The one to get me through that night |
| I only wanted you to be there when I |
| Opened up my eyes |
| Oh Doesn’t it ever stay? |
| I only wanted you to |
| Stay |
