[Intro]
Give me a heart to hold the godlike truth
Give me one good soul that I can tell it through
Give me good reason to believe in you
And give me strength if you have time

[Verse 1]
Give me two hands that’ll hold us up
And though you give me no more than just enough
You gave a pair of brown eyes that could call a good bluff
To somebody who thinks they shine

[Chorus 1]
You, I just want you
I just want you

[Verse 2]
Spend most of my life on a microphone
Giving all that I got til I head back home
And when the lights go out, and I’m all alone
I’ve got no reason to be crying
And on a bad day I feel like a masochist
Take it away from me if it’s for the best
Somehow I’ve ended up the head of this
Freight train that isn’t mine
[Chorus 1]
You, I just want you
I just want you

[Chorus 2]
So take it all away
If it isn’t meant for me
I don’t want the easy way
I just want you
They can give me everything
But at the end of the day
The only words I’ll say
Is “I just want you”

Ooooh, mmmm, mmmm

[Verse 3]
It’s all so simple when you break it all down
Two roads converged on a hallowed ground
It’s taken all my life to hear the sacred sound
Of sweet simplicity
Saying “Give it all back, it don’t mean a thing”
You got a short-lived life and a song to sing
And the only way up is believing
And never looking down
[Chorus 2]
So take it all away
If it isn’t meant for me
I don’t want the easy way
I just want you
They can give me everything
But at the end of the day
The only words I’ll say
Is “I just want you”

[Outro]
You, you, you
You, you, you, mmmm
