You Were My Everything Lyrics
[Talking:]
This goes out to someone that was
Once the most important person in my life
I didnt realize it at the time
I cant forgive myself for the way I treated you so
I dont really expect you to either
Its just... I dont even know
Just listenYoure the one that I want, the one that I need
The one that I gotta have just to succeed
When I first saw you, I knew it was real
Im sorry about the pain I made you feelThat wasnt me; let me show you the way
I looked for the sun, but its raining today
I remember when I first looked into your eyes
It was like God was there, heaven in the skiesI wore a disguise 'cause I didnt want to get hurt
But I didnt know I made everything worse
You told me we were crazy in love
But you didnt care when push came to shoveIf you loved me as much as you said you did
Then you wouldnt have hurt me like I aint shit
Now you pushed me away like you never even knew me
I loved you with my heart, really and trulyI guess you forgot about the times that we shared
When I would run my fingers through your hair
Late nights, just holding you in my arms
I dont know how I could do you so wrongI really wanna show you I really need to hold you
I really wanna know you like no one else could know you
Youre number one, always in my heart
And now I cant believe that our love is torn apart[Chorus:]
I need you and
I miss you and
I want you and
I love you cause
I wanna hold you,
I wanna kiss you
You were my everything
And I really miss you [2x]I knew you gonna sit and play this with your new man
And then sit and laugh as youre holding his hand
The thought of that just shatters my heart
It breaks in my soul and it tears me apartAt times we was off I was scared to show you
Now I wanna hold you until I cant hold you
Without you, everything seems strange
Your name is forever planted in my brainDamn it, Im insane,
Take away the pain
Take away the hurt
Baby, we can make it workWhat about when you
Looked into my eyes
Told me you loved me
As you would hugged meI guess everything you said was a lie
I think about it, it brings tears to my eyes
Now Im not even a thought in your mind
I can see clearly, my love is not blind[Chorus:]
I need you and
I miss you and
I want you and
I love you cause
I wanna hold you,
I wanna kiss you
You were my everything
And I really miss you [2x][Talking:]
I just wish everything could have turned out differently
I had a special feeling about you
I thought maybe you did too
You would understand, but
No matter what, youll always be in my heart
Youll always be my babyOur first day, it seemed so magical
I remember all the time that I had with you
Remember when you first came to my house?
You looked like an angel wearing that blouseWe hit it off, I knew it was real
But now I cant take all the pain that I feel
Reach in your heart, I know Im still there
I dont wanna hear that you no longer careRemember the times? Remember when we kissed?
I didnt think you would ever do me like this
I didnt think youd wanna see me depressed
I thought youd be there for me, this I confessYou said you were my best friend, was that a lie?
Now Im nothing to you, youre with another guy
I tried, I tried, I tried, and Im trying
Now on the inside it feels like Im dying[Chorus:]
I need you and
I miss you and
I want you and
I love you cause
I wanna hold you,
I wanna kiss you
You were my everything
And I really miss you [2x][Talking:]
And I do miss you
I just thought we were meant to be
I guess now, well never know
The only thing I want is for you to be happy
Whether it be with me, or without me
I just want you to be happy
