Days are long, life's so short
It's a crazy world, the moment we call life
Taking off across the sea
Touchdown, city full of lights
Looked around when there is no one in the room
There's a bar and they call for me and you
Floating up like there's water underneath
From the desert to the shining seaJust what I wanted, you're just what I wanted
Just what I wanted, oh, my, my (oh, my, my)
Look around, you're just what I wanted (just what I wanted)
Just what I wanted (just what I wanted)
Just what I wanted, I'm alright
I'm alright (just what I wanted, just what I wanted, you're just what I wanted)
Oh my, my (just what I wanted, just what I wanted, you're just what I wanted)
I'm alright, I'm alrightDays are long, life's so short
It's a crazy world when we meet, we try
Taking across the sea
Touchdown, festivals, night
Looked around at the faces in the room
People shouting, they're saying parlez-vous
Floating up like there's water underneath
I'm the desert, you're the shining seaJust what I wanted, you're just what I wanted
Just what I wanted, oh, my, my (oh, my, my)
Look around, you're just what I wanted (just what I wanted)
Just what I wanted (just what I wanted)
Just what I wanted, I'm alright
I'm alright (just what I wanted, just what I wanted, you're just what I wanted)
Oh my, my (just what I wanted, just what I wanted, you're just what I wanted)
I'm alright, I'm alrightAll that I've seen, I could feel it (I've been to so many places)
Show me your eyes (I've seen the brightest lights, the darkest nights)
All that I've seen (all the things that I have seen)
You are (I swear that you are) you areJust what I wanted (come on, come on)
You're just what I wanted
All my life
I found you
You're just what I wanted (you are) just what I wanted
All my life
Look around you (oh, oh, come on)
Oh my, my (yeah)Just what I wanted (just what I wanted)
Just what I wanted (just what I wanted)
You're just what I wanted all my life
Oh my, my
