"Good God," she said, "Is that the only thing you care about?"
Hollow songs in holy word is all I ever doubt

But I love you
I love you
At the core of my soul, I love you

And all I ever want is to be near you when you say, "I never, never, never needed anyone this way"

"I'm lost," she said, "It's not the only thing I care about"
Right from bad, and wrong from good
A hole in my heart, I think I could

But I love you
I love you
At the core of my soul, I love you

All I ever want is to be near you when you say, "I never, never, never needed anyone this way"
You're all I ever wanted, all I really wanted
We never, never, never needed anyone this way

"I'm gone," she said, "You wrapped yourself up in shiny things"
I'm gone, gone, gone
I can't give up on these dreams

But I love you
I love you
At the core of my soul, I love you
Sorry for the words I couldn't say
You're the best thing that I ever had - I hope it's not too late

And all I ever want is to be near you when you say, "I never, never, never needed anyone this way"
And all I ever want is to be near you when you say, "I never, never, never needed anyone this way"
Never needed anyone this way
