Everything I Want (Click For Lyrics/Story)

(Concrete Cowboys)
Travis Dow
Somewhat autobiographical, as well as a situation that I see happening to a lot of people. Of course, this one has a happy ending.
Kind of a pop song until Chad gets a hold of it. A little bit of U2's "With or Without You" and a little bit of Boston in this one, I think.
Chad's vocals on the last "need" were a spontaneous combustion that he'd never done before that day, and we've done it that way ever since.
-T.D.
I know I shouldn't believe everything she says
On a desperate call from that car of his
I know I should be the friend that he's never been
But it tears me up to see her runnin' to him

When she's everything I want, everything I...

I know I shouldn't believe everything I read
But by that look in her eyes, it's easy to see
A sweet love song gone horribly wrong
I can't pretend, and I can't leave it alone
Leave it alone

Chorus:
Everything I want
Everything I want
Everything I want, everything I need
He doesn't deserve her, I don't have the nerve to tell her she's...
Everything I want
Everything I want

SOLO

Bridge:
Woke up from another dream
She'd finally broken free
Now I'm rubbin' my eyes, 'cause right by my side I see

Chorus:
Everything I want
Everything I want
Everything I want, everything I need
I don't deserve her, but she's
Everything I need...
Everything I want
Everything I want
Everything I want
