I used to dream with my eyes wide open
Building castles in quiet skies
Thought I knew what I was chasing
But I never saw the why
Verse 2:
Every road I ran was winding
Led me farther from the shore
Tried to fill the space inside me
But I kept wanting more
Chorus:
All I ever wanted
Was a place to fall, a heart to hold
Someone who would never let go
Not the silver or the gold
Just a light that never faded
A love that wouldn’t leave me jaded
It was simple, it was true
All I ever wanted was you
Verse 3:
I wore masks and I played the part
Smiled like the world was mine
But even in the loudest rooms
I was always chasing time
Bridge:
Maybe I asked for too much
Or maybe I settled for less
But I’d trade every perfect moment
For one you’d never second guess
Chorus:
All I ever wanted
Was a place to fall, a heart to hold
Someone who would never let go
Not the silver or the gold
Just a light that never faded
A love that wouldn’t leave me jaded
It was simple, it was true
All I ever wanted was you
Outro:
Now I stand here, empty-handed
In the silence, I understand it
It was never about the view
All I ever wanted…
Was something real with you
