Everything You Have Ever Wanted Lyrics

I walk the line
Leave it all behind
I've been waiting forever
Lets go back in time
When I could read your mind
Still I've been waitingIt took the seasons going by
To know its not my faultI tried to be perfect, tried to be honest
Tried to be everything that you ever wanted
I tried to be stronger, tried to be smarter
Tried to be everything but youIts been so long
Since you've been home
I used to wait up forever
I used to say a prayer
Wishing you were there
And I'm still waitingYou told me once
You'd show up
But I fell for that
Before I fell to pieces

Then I woke up
To no one,
Just a picture of Jesus
And a house left in piecesIt took the seasons going by
To know its not my faultI tried to be perfect, tried to be honest
Tried to be everything that you ever wanted
I tried to be stronger, tried to be smarter
Tried to be everything but youI wanted you
I need you
I want to believe you
I wanted you
I need you
I want to believe youI tried to be perfect, tried to be honest
tried to be everything but you
(Repeat)
I tried to be perfect, tried to be honest
Tried to be everything that you ever wanted
I tried to be stronger, tried to be smarter
Tried to be everything but you
