All I Want
Out of the night that covered me
I thanked whatever God may be
For my unconquerability
Beyond this place of unafraid
Sometimes I sense a darker shade
But I am the master of my fate
A new unsureness came along
'Cause you bring so much joy
But I had planned to stay alone
You're here and I try to resist
I am successful but I'll miss you
From the moment that you're gone
I don't want to, I don't want to
I don't want to crush on you and
I don't want to, I don't need to
I don't want to rush, it's true 'cause
I'm afraid to, I'm afraid to,
I'm afraid to have you near, but
All I want is, all I want is,
all I want is to have you here with me
The moon, the golden glory of the sun
And rivers murmering as they run
Have always been my dearest joy
And you of green Savannahs spoke
And then you smiled at me and stroked me
When you looked a second like a boy
Before me shines a glorious world
Fresh as a banner, bright unfurled
Together suddenly
I look upon the hills and plains
And feel as if let loose from chains
To live in liberty
All I want is to have you here with me
Here, like a prayer I'd like to say to you
Dear, don't you ever ask too much too soon
But now I fell upon a velvet cloud and
trusting is what I'm allowed
Although I don't want to crush on you
All I want is to have you here with me
I thanked whatever God may be
For my unconquerability
Beyond this place of unafraid
Sometimes I sense a darker shade
But I am the master of my fate
A new unsureness came along
'Cause you bring so much joy
But I had planned to stay alone
You're here and I try to resist
I am successful but I'll miss you
From the moment that you're gone
I don't want to, I don't want to
I don't want to crush on you and
I don't want to, I don't need to
I don't want to rush, it's true 'cause
I'm afraid to, I'm afraid to,
I'm afraid to have you near, but
All I want is, all I want is,
all I want is to have you here with me
The moon, the golden glory of the sun
And rivers murmering as they run
Have always been my dearest joy
And you of green Savannahs spoke
And then you smiled at me and stroked me
When you looked a second like a boy
Before me shines a glorious world
Fresh as a banner, bright unfurled
Together suddenly
I look upon the hills and plains
And feel as if let loose from chains
To live in liberty
All I want is to have you here with me
Here, like a prayer I'd like to say to you
Dear, don't you ever ask too much too soon
But now I fell upon a velvet cloud and
trusting is what I'm allowed
Although I don't want to crush on you
All I want is to have you here with me
