I Only Wanted You
I never wanted that
mansion on a hill.
I never needed
that Cadillac Seville.
I only wanted you
I only wanted you.
I never wanted those
diamonds on my hand
I was happy with
just a wedding band.
I only wanted you
I only wanted you.
I just wanted to have
your arms around me.
I just needed to feel
your love surround me.
And now that we're apart,
it breaks my heart in two.
'Cuz you never really had
a clue I only wanted you.
Instead of always giving
me something else
I wish just once
you'd given me yourself.
I only wanted you,
I only wanted you.
I just wanted to have
your arms around me.
I just needed to feel
your love surround me.
And now that we're apart,
it breaks my heart in two.
That you never even
had a clue, I only wanted you.
I only wanted you
I only wanted you.
“This is my favorite. Women really like this tune because of what it says: ‘I didn’t want the Cadillac or the diamonds, all I wanted was you.’ And besides that , it just cooks.”
– Marie Osmond, 1990
