Lyrics

The last time that I saw her was the night she said goodbye She said that love's a stranger, and it's sure to pass you by, yes she did As she packed up her belongings, baby, wouldn't look me in the eye But I could see a tear roll off her face as we both tried so hard not to cry She said I never wanted the stars, never shot for the moon I like them right where they are All I wanted was you, so baby just turn away 'Cause I can't face the truth All I'm trying to say, is all I wanted was you I tried so hard to remember, where, when, how, why love went away I tried to drown myself in pity, but your memory kept calling my name, yes it did I bought you fancy cars and diamond rings, baby, all the things that money brings And the servants to paint the skies blue And I worked so hard seven days a week Built a fortress for your heart to keep If I could, I'd wrap these words up for you, yeah I never wanted the stars, never shot for the moon I like them right where they are All I wanted was you, so baby just turn away 'Cause I can't face the truth All I'm trying to say, is all I wanted was you I want you, I want you Baby, I want you But never thought you were alone I filled the party up with company But never made our house a home All, I've got is my guitar These chords and the truth All I've got is my guitar But all I want, baby all I want I never wanted the stars, never shot for the moon I like them right where they are All I wanted was you, so baby just turn away 'Cause I can't face the truth All I'm trying to say, is all I wanted was you I want you, I want you Baby, I want you I never wanted the stars (I want you) I never shot for the moon (I want you) I like them right where they are (baby, I want you) So baby just turn away (I want you) 'Cause I can't face the truth (I want you) All I wanted to say (baby I want you) I never wanted the stars (I want you) I never shot for the moon (I want you) I like them right where they are (baby, I want you) So baby just turn away (I want you)
