Vance Joy - All I Ever Wanted Lyrics






I was born on a Saturday,
My dad he held me screaming in his arms,
He can talk like it was yesterday,
When I got that holy water in my eye,
It's alright, is it just alright.

See all those faces coming down,
Trying not to let them down,
This time, babe is that alright,
Well I can still see the sun on the water,
I can still feel your sunlight.

And all I ever wanted was time,
You know that all I ever wanted was time.

And I know that I come on strong,
Forgive me I just couldn't help myself
And I have changed but I'm better now,
And I see you in this new and perfect light,
You're so fine, you're oh so fine.

See all those faces coming down,
Trying not to let them down,
This time, babe is that alright,
Well I can still see the sun on the water,
I can still feel your sunlight.

And all I ever wanted was time,
You know that all I ever wanted was time.

Da da da da...

You know that all I ever wanted was time,
You know that all I ever wanted was time,
You know all that we ever really needed was time.

    "All I Ever Wanted"

    I was born on a Saturday,
    My dad he held me screaming in his arms,
    He can talk like it was yesterday,
    When I got that holy water in my eye,
    It's alright, is it just alright.

    See all those faces coming down,
    Trying not to let them down,
    This time, babe is that alright,
    Well I can still see the sun on the water,
    I can still feel your sunlight.

    And all I ever wanted was time,
    You know that all I ever wanted was time.

    And I know that I come on strong,
    Forgive me I just couldn't help myself
    And I have changed but I'm better now,
    And I see you in this new and perfect light,
    You're so fine, you're oh so fine.

    See all those faces coming down,
    Trying not to let them down,
    This time, babe is that alright,
    Well I can still see the sun on the water,
    I can still feel your sunlight.

    And all I ever wanted was time,
    You know that all I ever wanted was time.

    Da da da da...

    You know that all I ever wanted was time,
    You know that all I ever wanted was time,
    You know all that we ever really needed was time.

  15. A.... W....

    is Mr. Joy aware that he created a greatest hit for radiohead? haha so awesome. great minds think alike

    A.... W....

    Tucking Fypo He's saying that Vance made a song reminiscent of Radiohead. And if Radiohead had made it, it would have been one of their greatest hits.

    A.... W....

    This is not reminiscent of radiohead. Where are you getting that from? Literally nothing by vance joy sounds like radiohead.
