All i ever wanted was to lose myself in you
All i ever needed was you to need me too
You're all i ever think about
I hunger for your touch
'n all i ever wanted
Was you - is that too much?

I hate the pain of loving you
It happens all the time
I never needed anything or anybody
Until your eyes met mine
I'm waiting for your answer babe
What's gonna become of us?
'cos all i ever wanted
Was you - is that too much?

It is too much to ask
That this man with a past
Could be happy at last
With a future like you
It is too much to ask
Is it too much of a task
Am i going to fast - for you?

Maybe you don't want me
I'm so scared of losing you
I never miss an opportunity to miss an opportunity
Watch me screw up this one too
It's so hard to talk about love
I'm leaving now, oh it's just
'n all i ever wanted
Was you - is that too much?
