"All I Ever Wanted"

I was born on a Saturday
My dad, he held me screaming in his arms
And he can talk like it was yesterday
When I got that holy water in my eye

[Pre-Chorus:]
It's alright, is it just alright?
See all those faces coming down
I'm trying not to let them down this time
Babe, is that alright?
Well, I can still see the sun on the water
I can still feel your sunlight

[Chorus:]
And all I ever wanted was time
You know that all I ever wanted was time

And I know that I come on strong
Forgive me, I just couldn't help myself
And I have changed, but I'm better now
And I see you in this new and perfect light

[Pre-Chorus:]
You're so fine, you're oh so fine
See all those faces coming down
I'm trying not to let them down this time
Babe, is that alright?
Well, I can still see the sun on the water
I can still feel your sunlight

[Chorus:]
And all I ever wanted was time
You know that all I ever wanted was time
You know that all I ever wanted was time

[Bridge:]
Da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da

[Chorus:]
You know that all I ever wanted was time
You know that all I ever wanted was time
You know all that we ever really needed was time
