All I wanted was you

I saw your light across the water,

Fading slow, then breaking through.

Every shadow turned to colour,

Every silence sang of you.

The world was loud, but I just listened,

To the tremble in your name.

And in the hush between our distance,

I found a love I can’t explain.

If I could hold this heartbeat still,

Just long enough for you to feel—

You’d know.

All I wanted was you,

When the night fell quiet and true.

Every road, every storm,

Led me back to your door.

I tried to lose this feeling, but it grew—

All I wanted was you.

There’s a note on my piano,

That only rings when I think of you.

It trembles soft like an echo,

Of a dream that once was new.

I’ve been chasing constellations,

That remind me of your eyes.

If love’s a map, then my salvation

Is the line where your soul lies.

If I could write the stars tonight,

I’d spell your name across the sky—

And let go.

All I wanted was you,

In the silence the world once knew.

Every tear, every song,

Made me see where I belong.

I tried to hide the truth, but it broke through—

All I wanted was you.

So here I am, no armour, no defence,

Just the sound of my heart in the quiet.

If you hear it, know this—

It beats for you,

Only you.

All I wanted was you,

When the morning cut the blue.

Every wrong, every right,

Pulled me closer to the light.

Now the truth comes shining through—

All I wanted…

All I wanted…

Was you.
