All I Want Lyrics

For so many years
you felt that your life was not your own
so many nights lying awake
you'd hear yourself saying
for all this time i've lived my life
without even trying
and all along i knew my heart
i knew my eyes were lying
But all i want is for you to
feel like you're alive
and all i want is to see some
fire in your eyes

So many nights the sound of the street
would call to you
in so many ways i know that
you can make your dreams come true
But all you want is to find a world
that's not your own
and all you see is an outside
chance to stand alone
but what is this all about can you say
you run so fast you burn your heart away
but now and then you have to see
that it's only you, it's only time
For so many years
you felt that your life was not your own
so many nights lying awake
you'd hear yourself saying
for all this time i've lived my life
without even trying
and all along i knew my heart
i knew my eyes were lying

But all i want is for you to
feel like you're alive
and all i want is to see some
fire in your eyes
