I Just Want You Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Give me your heart to hold the godlike truth.
Give me one good soul 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 this up.
I know you give me no more than just enough.
You gave a pair of brown eyes that could call a good bluff
And somebody who thinks they shine.
And you, I just want you.
I just want you.

[Verse 2]
Spend most of my life on a microphone
Giving all that I got till I head 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.
And you, I just want you.
I just want you.

[Chorus]
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."

Mmmm. Mmmmm. Mmmmm.

[Verse 3]
It's all so simple when you break it all down.
Two roads converged on a hallowed 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
In never looking down.”

[Chorus]
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.

Ooohoohooh.
I just want you.
Aaaahhh. Aaaaahhh.
Mmmmm.
