I Want You

The last time i saw her
Was the night she said goodbye
She said that love s a stranger
And it s sure to pass you by
As she packed up her belongings
Baby wouldn t look me in the eye
But i could see a tear roll
along her face
As we both tried so hard
Not to cry and she said

I never wanted the stars
I never shot for the moon
I like them right where they are
All i wanted was you
So baby just turn away
Because i can t face the truth
All i m trying to say
Is all i wanted was you

I tried so hard to remember
Where when how why love went away
I tried to drown myself in pity
But your memory kept on my mind
yes it did

I bought you fancy cars and diamond rings
Baby all the things that my money brings
And the servants to paint the sky blue
And i worked so hard seven days a week
to build a fortress for your heart to keep
If i could i d wrap these words up for you

I never wanted the stars
I never shot for the moon
I like them right where they are
All i wanted was you
So baby just turn away
Because i can t face the truth
All i m trying to say
Is all i wanted was you

But never thought you were alone
I filled the party up with company
But never made our house a home
All i got is my guitar these words and the truth
All i got is my guitar ... but all i want
Baby all i want
I never wanted the stars
I never shot for the moon
I like them right where they are
All i wanted was you
So baby just turn away
Because i can t face the truth
All i m trying to say
Is all i wanted was you
