Lyrics
All I Really Want
© 2012 Jonathan Dean Snellings & Tiffany Williams
VERSE
We say we're gonna run away
Say we're gonna find the time
As one more night turns into day
I can feel it slipping on by
It's as quiet as a church
In every room of this house
All you have to do is say the word
And, baby, we're out of this town
PRE-CHORUS
If I could find a way we'd be gone
Saying it is not enough, make time for the things you want
CHORUS
All I really want is you
Let's fall in love again
Take us off pause
Tear down these walls
And give ourselves a chance
Just to be in the same room
Dim the lights down low and then
Re-discover each other
'Til the sky turns blue
All I really want is you
VERSE
We used to laugh and talk all night
Now we barely speak for days
Can we get back what we had?
We can't let it go on this way
I get so caught up in me
I lose sight of what I love
But when it comes to what I need
Baby, you're more than enough
PRE-CHORUS
Let me know that it's not too late
There's nothing that I wouldn't give just to hear you say
CHORUS
