All I wanted

All I ever wanted was to be with you

To be your first good morning

And your last good night

To be the one who was always there

At your side through thick and thin

To be a shoulder you can lean on

And to make you laugh and smile

I wanted to feel your hand in mine

As we walked beneath moonlit skies

I wanted to sit with you in the sand

And watch the sunset into the sea

I wanted to hold you in my arms

And run my fingers through your hair

I wanted to feel your warm embrace

And hug as you fall asleep on my chest

I wanted to listen to all your stories
And hear all about your day

I wanted to take away all your fears

And be your knight in shining armour

I wanted to be your best friend

And to love you unconditionally

I wanted us to be together forever

To live our lives side by side

And be partners in everything we do
But this was not to be,

And I had to face the truth
My love for you was wasted,
Because you didn't feel the same
I still wanted to be the one,
But I ended up being a fool
Because you were everything I ever wanted,

And everything I could never have.
