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
