I Wanted It All Lyrics


I wanted it all right from the beginning
The more that I saw of what could be mine
So young and so faithful, too hungry and blind
Sure took a fall, I wanted it allThe side I was on was where I could get it
Into the streets where it's easy to use
Taking my brother, getting down on the blues
Sleeping in halls, I wanted it allFires keep burning just to become ashes
You change your mind as fast as lightning flashesI wanted it all up to the last minute
I took you for real and you took me apart
Two gamblers felt lucky, but one had the cards
After the fall, I wanted it allWell, you're telling me, oh, what you believe in
You say you want someone who has nothing to give
Say I'm empty handed and I don't know how to live
I don't believe you at all, I wanted it allYou never knew me at all, I wanted it all
I wanted it all

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Rita Coolidge (born May 1, 1945, in Lafayette, Tennessee) is an American Singer. Coolidge's early career was as a backing vocalist, for artists such as Joe Cocker, Eric Clapton, and Leon Russell. Her performance of "Superstar" on the Cocker/Russell Mad Dogs and Englishmen album helped gain her attention. She became known as "The Delta Lady" and inspired Leon Russell to write a song of the same name for her. It was during this time that she met Kris Kristofferson; the two married in 1973.
