All That I Wanted

by Scrittore   Jun 18, 2012


I did not ask for that which I receive
But in comparison everything I need
Is forgotten and lost - now I'm broken
What does it mean?
To know what life is
And the very breath be taken away
It does not come in silver or gold
Nor in a box, wrapped in a bow
It cannot be bought or sold

The day I was freed I found you
Now I'm caught in a prison
You with lock and key
Oh please, please end this misery
Your love was all I would ever need
All that I would ever need

I did not ask for the tear stained face
But in reality everything I felt
Has burned to ashes in the fireplace
What does it mean?
To know what life is
And the very breath be taken away
It does not come by a single day
Nor in an apology insincerely made
It cannot all be undone

The day I was freed I found you
Now I'm caught in a prison
You with lock and key
Oh please, please end this misery
Your love was all I would ever need
All that I would ever need

So set me free
Search me, you'd know it to be true by my eyes
Try me, take a chance and you'll be surprised
Trust me, I promise that this is not a lie....
What I need, what I want is not a passing moment or thought
I need a man that can stand by my side
Fulfill my need for some passionate nights
A smile, a friend, family and happy memories

The day I was freed I found you
Now I'm caught in a prison
You with lock and key
Oh please, please end this misery
Your love was all I would ever need

All that I wanted --- from you
All that I wanted --- from you
All that I wanted, I wanted from you

Oh please end this misery (Your love was all I would ever need)
Oh please end this misery (Your love was all I would ever need)

All that I wanted from you
