All I Needed Was You Lyrics

Outside the church bell tolls
For this wasteland we call home
There's nowhere left to hide or run to
Daddy drank real hard late at night
He said without love life's a long fight
I promised I'd win one fight for him
Outside the storm is raging
I close my eyes
I think about you girl
There's got to be something left worth saving
We've wasted too much time
I've played the fool
I've played the soldier
But my struggling days are over
I wanted everything but all I needed was you
I didn't want so much when I was just a young boy

All I wanted was a rich man's play toy
Didn't really care how I got there baby
I've seen a lot of hopes and dreams die
In the oil fields and in the coal mines
Don't need to wonder why nobody's satisfied lately
Outside the storm is raging
I close my eyes
I think about you girl
There's got to be something left worth saving
We've wasted too much time
I've played the fool
I've played the soldier
But my struggling days are over
I wanted everything when all I needed was you
I wanted everything and all I needed was you
I wanted everything and all I needed was you, babe
