Give me a heart to hold the godlike truth
|
Give me one good soul that I can tell it through
|
Give me good reason to believe in you
|
And give me strength if you have time
|
|
Give me two hands that’ll hold us up
|
And though you give me no more than just enough
|
You gave a pair of brown eyes that could call a good love
|
To somebody who thinks they shine
|
|
You, I just want you
|
I just want you
|
|
Spend most of my life on a microphone
|
Giving all that I got til I back home
|
And when the lights go out, and I’m all alone
|
I’ve got no reason to be crying
|
|
And on a bad day I feel like a masochist
|
Take it away from me if it’s for the best
|
Somehow I’ve ended up the head of this
|
Freight train that isn’t mine
|
|
You, I just want you
|
I just want you
|
|
So take it all away
|
If it isn’t meant for me
|
I don’t want the easy way
|
I just want you
|
They can give me everything
|
But at the end of the day
|
The only words I’ll say
|
Is “I just want you”
|
|
Ooooh, mmmm, mmmm
|
|
It’s all so simple when you break it all down
|
Two roads converged down the hollow ground
|
It’s taken all my life to hear the sacred sound
|
Of sweet simplicity
|
|
Saying “Give it all back, it don’t mean a thing”
|
You got a short-lived life and a song to sing
|
And the only way up is believing
|
And never looking down
|
|
So take it all away
|
If it isn’t meant for me
|
I don’t want the easy way
|
I just want you
|
They can give me everything
|
But at the end of the day
|
The only words I’ll say
|
Is “I just want you”
|
|
You, you, you
|
You, you, you, mmmm
|
