Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes - All I Needed Was You lyrics

Outside the church bells toll For this wasteland, we call home There's nowhere left to hide or run to Daddy drank real hard late at night He said, ?Without love, life's a long fight? L promised I'd win one fight for him, babe The storm outside is raging I close my eyes, l think about you, babe I think about you, girl There's got to be something left worth saving We've wasted too much time And I played the fool, I played the soldier But my struggling days are over I wanted everything When all l needed was you, babe l didn't understand, I was just a young boy All I wanted was the rich man's play toys I didn't really care how I got there, baby But now I've seen a thousand dreams die In the oil fields, in the coal mines No need to wonder why nobody's satisfied lately The storm outside is raging I close my eyes, l think about you, babe I think about you, girl There's got to be something left worth saving We've wasted too much time And I played the fool, I played the soldier But my struggling days are over I wanted everything When all l needed was you, babe All I needed was you, babe The storm outside is raging We've wasted too much time And I played the fool, I played the soldier But my struggling days are over I wanted everything When all l needed was you, babe Yeah, I played the fool, I played the soldier But my struggling days are over I wanted everything When all l needed was you, babe All I needed was you, babe All I needed was you, girl, yeah, yeah All I needed was you, babe, yeah All I needed was you All I needed was you, babe All I needed was you, baby
