D-DU-UDU
Give me your heart to hold the God-like 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
And don't you give me no more than just enough
You gave a pair of brown eyes that can call a good bluff
And somebody who thinks they shine
But you, I just want you
I just want you
I spend most of my life on a microphone
Giving all that Ive got until I head back home
And when the lights go out, and Im all alone,
Got no reason to be crying
But on a bad day I feel like a masochist
Take it away from me, if it's for the best
Somehow I ended up the head of this
Freight train that isn't mine
But you, I just want you
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 Ill say
Is 'I just want you'
I just want you
Its all so simple when I break it all down
Two roads converged on a hallow ground
Its taken all my life to hear the sacred sound
Of sweet simplicity
Saying 'give it all back, you 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
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 Ill say
Is 'I just want you'
Oh,
I just want you
Oh
