The last time i saw her
Was the night she said goodbye
She said that love's a stranger
And it's sure to pass you by
As she packed up her belongings
Baby wouldn't look me in the eye
But i could see a tear roll
Off her face
As we both tried so hard
Not to cry she said
I never wanted the stars
Never shot for the moon
I like them right where they are
All i wanted was you
So baby just turn away
Cause i can't face the truth
All i'm trying to say
Is all i wanted was you
I tried so hard to remember
Where when how why love went away
I tried to drown myself in pity
But your memory kept calling your name
I bought you fancy cars and diamond rings
All the things that money brings
And the servants to paint the skies blue
And i worked so hard seven days a week
And built a fortress for your heart to keep
If i could i'd wrap these words up for you
I never wanted the stars
Never shot for the moon
I like them right where they are
All i wanted was you
So baby just turn away
Cause i can't face the truth
All i'm trying to say
Is all i wanted was you
I want you
I want you
Baby i want you
I may have built for you a dreamhouse
But never thought you were alone
I filled the party up with company
But never made our house a home
All i've got is my guitar these chords and the truth
All i got is my guitar ... but all i want baby all i want
I never wanted the stars
Never shot for the moon
I like them right where they are
All i wanted was you
So baby just turn away
Cause i can't face the truth
All i'm trying to say
Is all i wanted was you
I want you
I want you
Baby i want you
