All I Want Is You


When Christmas came around
and I was a child..
I wanted a toy...

Temporary Happiness I found..
for a little while...
but I was just a boy.../

When Christmas came around..
and I was a little bit older..
I wanted nice clothes,
a fast car, a valid passport
and a ticket to ride../

But now I'm a little older
and I have learned...
That the things I really want
can't be bought..
They have to be earned.../

I've spent half of my life being
a fool...
When girl, All I really needed to be
happy was you.../

All I want is you....
All I want is you...
All I need is you, you, baby just you...
All I need is you../

Put your hand in mine..
say that you'll love me
all the time..
I promise you..
I'll be just fine..
because darlin...
All I want is you../


You see...
When Christmas came around..
and I was a little bit older..
I wanted nice clothes,
a fast car, a valid passport
and a ticket to ride../

But now I'm a little older
and I have learned...
That the things I really want
can't be bought..
They have to be earned.../

Like the love of a good woman...
Like a bridge that won't be burned..

I've spent half of my life being
a fool...
When girl, All I really needed to be
happy was you.../

baby,

All I want is you....
All I want is you...
All I need is you, you, baby just you...
All I need is you../

Put your hand in mine..
say that you'll love me
all the time..
I promise you..
I'll be just fine..
because darlin...
All I want is you../


All I want is you....
All I want is you...
All I need is you, you, baby just you...
All I need is you../

To be happy girl,
All I want is you../
