"All She Ever Really Wanted" lyrics

All She Ever Really Wanted

I would given her the mountains
Every star up in the sky
Any little thing she wanted
I would do

But the sad and lonely truth is
That I never stood a chance
Cause all she ever wanted
Was you

You don't listen to her problems
You just think about yourself
Heaven knows you've made her cry
A time or two

I would gladly dry those teardrops
Make her smile forever more
But all she ever wanted
Was you

Ain't love a funny thing?
Never know what'll make a heart sing
Nothing I could say
Nothing I could do
All she ever really wanted was you
All she ever really wanted was you

Well, I know I ought to give up
Fall in love with someone else
Instead I hold on to this dream
That won't come true

And I'm always gonna wonder
Till the very day I die
Why all she ever wanted
Was you

Ain't love a funny thing?
Never know what'll make a heart sing
Nothing I could say
Nothing I could do
All she ever really wanted was you
All she ever really wanted was you
