All I wanted was everything
My sad attraction, a wedding ring
And a long lost lady in a long black dress
Well, her succumbing was my success

All I wanted was everything
All I wanted was everything

She sucked the lust from my fingertips
I licked the love from her luscious lips
A burning sign at a cheap motel
We shook that bed 'til the mirrors fell

All I wanted was everything
All I wanted was everything

You see what you want but you take what you get
You don't know what you want but you ain't got it yet
See what you want but you take what you get
'Till it's all gone

You see what you want but you take what you get
You don't know what you want but you ain't got it yet
You dream it, you speak it, you finally seek it
And it's all gone

Two months later was when we'd meet
In a supermarket with four cold feet
To lose a lover but gain a friend
Will never feel this good again

All I wanted was everything
All I wanted was everything

You see what you want but you take what you get
You don't know what you want but you ain't got it yet
See what you want but you take what you get
'Till it's all gone

You see what you want but you take what you get
You don't know what you want but you ain't got it yet
You dream it, you speak it, you finally seek it
And it's all gone

You see what you want but you take what you get
...All I wanted
You don't know what you want but you ain't got it yet
...All I wanted
See what you want but you take what you get
...All I wanted
'Till it's all gone
...All I wanted

You see what you want but you take what you get
...All I wanted
You don't know what you want but you ain't got it yet
...All I wanted
You dream it, you speak it, you finally seek it
...All I wanted
And it's all gone
