Paramore – All I Wanted Lyrics

Paramore · Brand New Eyes

Rock

Think of me when you're out, when you're out there
I'll beg you nice from my knees

And when the world treats you way too fairly

Well, it's a shame I'm a dream

All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you

I think I'll pace my apartment a few times
And fall asleep on the couch
And wake up early to black and white reruns
That escaped from my mouth, oh, oh
All I wanted was you

All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you

I could follow you to the beginning
Just to relive the start

And maybe then we'll remember to slow down
And all of our favorite parts
All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you

This is possibly one of the saddest songs I've ever heard. Hayley has an amazing vocal range. And this being about her and Josh just bums me out so bad. So sad. Well at least they're both happy now.

This is by far my favorite song on Brand New Eyes. It's sad, but the melody is incredible, and Hayley's vocals are insane!! The whole album is good though.

This song is NOT about her and Josh. This is a song that he wrote randomly. I have her personal journal/lyrics book for Brand New Eyes. I can promise you that this is not about her and Josh. She said herself that it's just a song that she wrote because she was, well, bored I guess.

Guys & Gals this song was written by Haley & Taylor NOT Josh... read the inner words on the cd...By far the best one on the cd

Hayley Williams, by far the best female singer, of this day and age, argue if you must, but this girls got skills no-one can deny.

music is music no matter the genre.get over it, the only people that really care about separating music anymore, are people that are confused with themselves. Music brings everyone together.

iam singing this song for the talent show at school and it is me and my boyfriends song and iam in 7 grade

I cried when i heard this song... Its just so painfully true, and if you listen to the lyrics thoroughly, you really undertsand the song, and it makes it so much more meaningfull! This is what music is about.... Not the beat, or the hot person singing! its the emotion and feeling the song gives you... that is the true definition of music.

I don't see how a 7th grader could understand this song on a personal, emotional level. Anyways, it's a good song.

you guys go on saying "i love this song!", "i can feel the emotions" .... when you can even say what are the emotions the song tries to express.... if there is someone who can tell me... i'd really appreciate ^_^ i know it's pretty obvious already, but we all have our own way of understanding the song... so share it ^_^

i just feel like this song was so incredibly powerful...! it really made me feel...i don't know. i could really relate this to my life. i'm sure anyone could, because this song really invoked some kind of passionate feelings.
