You Needed More
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.
I had everything I wanted
but you wanted more
I had everything I needed
but you needed more
Songs for your father,
maybe your brother or your sister
Right at your mother
Fools on the water
Springs in the quarter
You know I saw you
We play the same songs in your town
as we play in ours
We play the same God in your town
as we play in ours
Is that your brother undercover?
All through the summer to
slip at winter
It's unreturning you don't deserve me.
You don't confirm me
If your father was like anything you
talked about, he would not be proud of you
If your father was like anything you
talked about, he would not be proud of you
We play the same love in your town as we play in ours
We play the same God in your town as we play in ours
Songs for your father,
maybe your brother or your sister
Right at your mother
Fools on the water
Springs in the quarter,
You know I saw you
If your father was like anything you
Talked about, he would not be proud of you
