All I Ever Wanted
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Here I am, last of the romantics
Everytime I get caught in the sway
I'm just a fool for a love song
But I wouldn't have it any other way
The white boys and the black girls sang
The heartbreak kids kept dreaming
Through the thick flat light of a midwest night
The Detroit station came screaming...
And all I ever wanted, all you got to do
is, baby, just don't say goodnight
till the man gets around to our song
Turn up the radio till this
one's through
I got what I wanted, all I ever
wanted was you...
Take your time, make your mind up
Don't say yes if you really don't know
'Cause I can hold on just a little longer
And the night is still young, so let's go...
You hold it all in your hands tonight
with your sweet surrender sighs
French kisses 'neath the streetlight
You never win if you never try...
And all I ever wanted, all you got to do
is, baby, just don't say goodnight
till the man gets around to our song
Turn up the radio till this
one's through
I got what I wanted, all I ever
wanted was you...
Ooh, tell me, baby, what you want me to do
Tell me what you want me to be
You can make my dreams come true
if you only say to me...
And all I ever wanted, all you got to do
is, baby, just don't say goodnight
till the man gets around to our song
Turn up the radio till this
one's through
I got what I wanted, all I ever
wanted was you...
I got what I wanted, all I ever wanted was you...
I got what I wanted, all I ever wanted was you...
