I Only Wanted — текст песни (Mariah Carey)

Doesn`t it ever stay
Must it always fade away
Couldn`t love ever be
Something tangible and real
Farewell, fairweather friend
Abandonment returns to taunt me again


I only wanted you to stay
Linger and mean the words you said
Foolishly I romanticized
Someone was saving my life
For the first time
I only wanted you to be there when I
Opened up my eyes


I was caught in your masquerade
Wish I`d stayed beneath my veil
But it just seemed so easy to
Open up myself to you
Once more into the wind
The embers scatter
And the chill settles in


I only wanted you to stay
Linger and mean the words you said
Foolishly I romanticized
Someone was saving my life
For the first time
I only wanted you to be there when I
Opened up my eyes


Guitar solo


Oh
I only wanted you to stay
Linger and mean the words you said
Foolishly I romanticized
Someone was saving my life
For the first time
I only wanted you to be
The one to get me through that night


I only wanted you
To be there when I
Opened up my eyes
Oh
Doesn`t it ever stay?
I only wanted you to
Stay
