Only Ever Wanted You

Intro

Oh oh

Mmm

Oh oh

Verse 1

Found your name on the sidewalk

Deep under layers of white chalk

Tucked beside a silver ring

Cold wind makes the branches swing

Empty train sits on the line

Wishing for a better time

Yellow lamp above the street

Tapping out a steady beat

Pre-Chorus

Stars start falling

I hear you calling

Moonlight pale on the gate

Chorus

Wait for the rain to break the spell

Everything I meant to tell

Everything I meant to say

Falls like water through the clay

Lost the thread in the silver sky

Birds are learning how to fly

Hold on tight to what we knew

Only ever wanted you

Verse 2

Rust is climbing up the wall

Winter coming for us all

Iron gates are locking fast

Nothing built was meant to last

Maps were folded in your coat

Left a secret in the note

Walking down a hollow road

Underneath a heavy load

Pre-Chorus

Sky gets lower

Clock moves slower

Shadows stretch across the slate

Chorus

Wait for the rain to break the spell

Everything I meant to tell

Everything I meant to say

Falls like water through the clay

Lost the thread in the silver sky

Birds are learning how to fly

Hold on tight to what we knew

Only ever wanted you

Bridge

Maybe we were built of stone

Standing in the light alone

Built a wall to keep the sound

Burning circles on the ground

Every piece we left behind

Floating in a tired mind

Tired mind

Chorus

Wait for the rain to break the spell

Everything I meant to tell

Everything I meant to say

Falls like water through the clay

Lost the thread in the silver sky

Birds are learning how to fly

Hold on tight to what we knew

Only ever wanted you

Hook

Ooh ooh ooh

Always you

Ooh ooh ooh

Only you
