All I ever wanted

All I ever planned for you was love,
All that I expected was reciprocation of
But on this divided highway,
The sign’s beyond the bluff
So here I’m hoping hope will be enough
Oh, here I’m hoping hope will be enough

All I ever wished for us was life.
Twists and turns we’d navigate together in the night.
But here I’m reading currents while you’re following the light.
And I can’t know where to join you at your side.
I can’t know how to join you at your side.

All that I can promise is I’ll try
and learn to leave the logic that demands to know the why.
I know you feel the pain but don’t yet know the way you cry.
So help me hear the words you have inside.
Oh, help me hear the words you have inside

All we ever fought for was your peace.
Hoping we could claw our way in,  keeping you in reach.
And when every missed connection shows that love and failure sting,
I’ll still give you my everything?

I’ll still give you my everything,
