I turned my head away Didn′t wanna hear what you said You had changed your mind
I showed up insecure But I thought you would be sure I guess I had a lost sight
But at the end of my life I′ll look back on my life I′ll know that my life was good At the end of my life I′ll look back on my life See I went after you like I should I went after what I wanted I went after what I wanted And I never really got it But it don′t matter at all
I guess it was a lot To ask for these things we′d lost I guess it was just a dream
And time changes many things But my heart it still sings For you, I don′t know why
But at the end of my life I′ll look back on my life and I′ll know that my life was good At the end of my life I′ll look back on my life See I went after you like I should I went after what I wanted I went after what I wanted And I never really got it But it don′t matter at all
I thought I′d spend my last days Holding your hand Now all of my senses lie here dead on the floor
But at the end of my life I′ll look back on my life and I′ll know that my life was good At the end of my life I′ll look back on my life See I went after you like I should I went after what I wanted I went after what I wanted And I never really got it
Everything else I lost it I went after what I wanted I went after what I wanted And the rest don′t really matter It don′t matter at all
I suppose that I should count my blessings For a young thing my world is not too bad Got a window, a place with a pillow and a friend or two But ever since I saw his face that morning Nothing else has got the same summer sheen Will he notice my eyes have got so lonely? He may not be the one but I want him for my own and I know
I am not good at not getting what I want
Maybe I sound like a spoilt baby But I know that there are some who have it all I want to join them, to feel that glow around me I want him more each day ?cos he never looks my way and I know
I am not good at not getting what I want
If we ever found ourselves together I can promise I will love you every day But I′ve a feeling seeing is believing You never look my way so I want you more than I can say
It always seemed that I was sorry for the things that I did, But never did a thing about it ′til I let you in. It′s kinda funny about the time that I was falling apart. You came and put me back together, now.
′Cause what I want And what I need Has now become the same thing You′ve been offering. As days go by, I′ve finally become what you want me to be.
I still remember all the stupid things that I′ve said and done, But still, you stuck around with me when all your friends said, "Run!" Givin′ me a name, I found myself inside all the flames. Becoming everything for you again.
What I want And what I need Has now become the same thing You′ve been offering. As days go by, I′ve finally become what you want me to be.
Don′t tell me you saw it all along. God help me, I never knew it alone. Guess I was wrong.
What I want And what I need Has now become the same thing You′ve been offering. As days go by, I′ve finally become what you want me to be.
And what I need Has now become the same thing You′ve been offering. You′ve taken me, And shaped me to become what you want me to be.
