BoDeans - All I Ever Wanted

Her people didn't have much going

She was 15 years old

And her eyes were on fire

Burning straight from her soul

Her boots and her movies

Man, she was into her bong

And no one really knew her

She felt confused and alone

If anyone would have asked her

She would have liked to have said

"All I ever wanted was to be on your side

All I ever wanted was to be with you

All I ever wanted was to be on your side

All I ever wanted was to feel"

Since those times with her stepdad

She's been a victim of *****

Her family was gone now

It was all she had left

"Wasn't I good enough for you?

Wasn't I sweet enough

Wasn't I pretty enough

Why didn't you ever want me?"

Now those eyes once so hungry

Are just holes she can't seem to fill

And what she learned from her mama

Has long lost it's thrill

And in the distance there's thunder

Running over the sky

Man, she'd like to feel that

If she wasn't so down and tired
