  1. All that I want

  2. Is to know undoubtedly

  3. That you just have eyes for me

  4. Could you make it clear

  5. All that I want

  6. Is to sit here silently

  7. And watch movies on TV

  8. What a shame you're not here

  9. Here to witness my devotion

  10. And my endless well of needs

  11. I'm an anchor in the ocean

  12. You know I could never leave

  13. So I'm patient

  14. You're learning

  15. Pretend it's not hurting

  16. Ohh

  17. They say it's a virtue

  18. To not let good love slip away

  19. So I'm cool and forgiving

  20. I'll take what you're giving

  21. Ohh

  22. But nothing's quite enough

  23. When I know that to get it I begged

  24. Yeah to get it I begged

  25. And I have this thought

  26. When I lay in bed at night

  27. That I feel trapped inside my life

  28. Is that a normal thing

  29. To fight back the waves

  30. Of a static lovers' dread

  31. I'm overwhelmed, I'm underfed

  32. And yet I still cling

  33. Cling to hope like snow on mountains

  34. Careless words melt it away

  35. I'm a penny in a fountain

  36. Just waiting on my luck to change

  37. So I'm patient

  38. You're learning

  39. Pretend it's not hurting

  40. Ohh

  41. 'Cause they say it's a virtue

  42. To not let good love slip away

  43. So I'm cool and forgiving

  44. I'll take what you're giving

  45. Ohh

  46. But nothing's quite enough

  47. When I know that to get it I begged

  48. Yeah to get it I begged

begged

All that I want

Is to know undoubtedly

That you just have eyes for me

Could you make it clear

All that I want

Is to sit here silently

And watch movies on TV

What a shame you're not here

Here to witness my devotion

And my endless well of needs

I'm an anchor in the ocean

You know I could never leave

So I'm patient

You're learning

Pretend it's not hurting

Ohh

They say it's a virtue

To not let good love slip away

So I'm cool and forgiving

I'll take what you're giving

Ohh

But nothing's quite enough

When I know that to get it I begged

Yeah to get it I begged

And I have this thought

When I lay in bed at night

That I feel trapped inside my life

Is that a normal thing

To fight back the waves

Of a static lovers' dread

I'm overwhelmed, I'm underfed

And yet I still cling

Cling to hope like snow on mountains

Careless words melt it away

I'm a penny in a fountain

Just waiting on my luck to change

So I'm patient

You're learning

Pretend it's not hurting

Ohh

'Cause they say it's a virtue

To not let good love slip away

So I'm cool and forgiving

I'll take what you're giving

Ohh

But nothing's quite enough

When I know that to get it I begged

Yeah to get it I begged
