All I Needed Was You

Outside the church bells toll

For this wasteland we call home

There's nowhere left to hide or run to

Daddy drank real hard late at night

He'd say without love life's a long fight

l promised I'd win one fight for him, babe

The storm outside is raging

I close my eyes, l think about you, babe

I think about you, girl

There's got to be something left worth saving

We've wasted too much time

I played the fool I played the soldier

But my struggling days are over

I wanted everything

When all l needed was you, babe

l didn't understand I was just a young boy

All I wanted was the rich man's play toys

I didn't really care how I got there, baby

Now I've seen a thousand dreams die

In the oil fields, in the coal mines

No need to wonder why

Nobody's satisfied lately

The storm outside is raging

I close my eyes l think about you, babe

I think about you, girl

There's got to be something left worth saving

We've wasted too much time

And I played the fool I played the soldier

But my struggling days are over

I wanted everything

When all l needed was you, babe

All I needed was you, girl, yea

All I needed was you, babe
