Everything You Ever Wanted

I walk the line
leave it all behind
I've been waiting forever
Let's go back in time
when I could read your mind
Still I've been waiting
It took the seasons going by
To know it's not my fault
I tried to be perfect
tried to be honest
Tried to be anything
that you ever wanted
I tried to be stronger
tried to be smarter
Tried to be everything but you
It's been so long
since you've been home
I used to wait up forever
I used to say a prayer
wishing you were there
I'm still waiting
You told me once you'd show up
But I fell for that before
I fell to pieces
Then I woke up to no one
Just a picture of Jesus
and a house left in pieces
It took the seasons going by
To know it's not my fault
I tried to be perfect
tried to be honest
Tried to be anything
that you ever wanted
I tried to be stronger
tried to be smarter
Tried to be everything but you
I want you I need you
I want to believe you
I want you I need you
I want to believe you
tried to be perfect
tried to be honest
Tried to be everything but you
I tried to be perfect
tried to be honest
Tried to be anything
that you ever wanted
I tried to be stronger
tried to be smarter
Tried to be everything but you
I tried to be perfect
tried to be honest
Tried to be anything
that you ever wanted
I tried to be stronger
tried to be smarter
Tried to be everything but you
