Def Leppard

ALL I WANT IS EVERYTHING

I don't know how to leave you

And I don't know how to stay

I got things that I must tell you

That I don't know how to say

The man behind these empty words

Is crying out in shame

Holding on to this sinking ship

Where nothing else remains

All I want is everything

Am I asking too much

All I want is everything

Like the feel of your touch

But all I have are yesterdays

Tomorrow never comes

It's hard to hold your head up

When you're kneeling to pray

And talking don't come easy now

When the words get in the way

And if you could see what's going on

Behind these private eyes

The truth would look so easy now

But I'm running out of lies

All I want is everything

Am I asking too much

All I want is everything

Like the feel of your touch

But all I have are yesterdays

Tomorrow never comes

You think the shadow of doubt is hanging over my head

It's just an angel whose wings hide the sun

And it's myself I betray

I cannot wish this away

Took my chance, now the damage is done

All I want is everything

Am I asking too much, yeah

All I want is everything

Like the feel, the feel of your touch

All I have are yesterdays

Tomorrow never comes
