Mariah Carey - I Only Wanted lyrics

Album: Charmbracelet (2002)

Doesn´t it ever stay
Must it always fade away
Couldn´t love ever be
Smth tangible & real
Farewell, fairweather friend
Abandonment returns to taunt me again

I only wanted you to stay
Linger & mean the words you said
Foolishly I romanticized
Someone was saving my life
For the 1st time
I only wanted you to be there when I
Opened up my eyes

I was caught in your masquerade
Wish I would stayed beneath my veil
But it just seemed so easy to
Open up myself to you
Once more into the wind
The embers scatter
And the chill settles in

I only wanted you to stay
Linger & mean the words you said
Foolishly I romanticized
Someone was saving my life
For the 1st time
I only wanted you to be there when I
Opened up my eyes

Oh
I only wanted you to stay
Linger & mean the words you said
Foolishly I romanticized
Someone was saving my life
For the 1st time
I only wanted you to be
The one to get me through that night

I only wanted you
To be there when I
Opened up my eyes
Oh
Doesn´t it ever stay?
I only wanted you to
Stay
