I don’t want to see you, don’t want to feel you
Don’t want to talk about
Don’t want to say aloud what is in my head
Everyone knows anyway
It is a mistake to trade real for fake
You can ask, I know
What it’s like to throw everything away
Leaving a shell for yourself
I saw everything I ever needed
I had everything I wanted
I don’t want to see you, don’t want to feel you
Don’t want to talk about
Don’t want to say aloud what is in my head
Everyone knows anyway
Now I feel I’m ready – a fool though I may be
To come out and say what I need to admit
Thought I could find someone
Another who had everything
I saw everything I ever needed
I, I had everything I ever wanted
You, you were everything I ever dreamed of
You, you were everything, everything…
You don’t think that I’m the one
But you don’t know what I’ve become
If we can try to make it through
How long do I have to love you
I saw everything I ever needed
I, I had everything I ever wanted
You, you were everything I’d ever dreamed of
You, you were everything, everything…
This is an old song that's about thinking that you've found everything that you want in somebody you loved and lost.
