All I Ever Wanted

All I ever wanted
I wish I'd never seen this day
And darker clouds had blown away
To clear the sky, for the sun to shine

I pray that memories fade away
And some new morning I'll breathe the light of day
Then she will know, the price we paid and we paid

All I ever wanted
Was to turn back time
And wipe the tears from my eyes
They've been there a long time

I'm locked down, a heart that's screaming
No love, I'm only dreaming
When you smile
I see shadows on the ceiling

When once, a kiss was all
No more within these walls
And so, your distant love still calls

All I ever wanted
Was to turn back time
And wipe the tears from my eyes
They've been there a long time

With all the hope that slips away
A shining star will come our way
Take it back, turn it back, take it back
All I ever wanted

All I ever wanted
Was holding hands on drifting sands
And walking while the sun was falling
And all the words
I never heard
They only cried that love was calling

Way down within your mind
You left our life behind
A place where passion
Leaves a grown man blind
So take away my heart
We wont survive apart
For this is the day
For young love and young hearts
