MARIAH CAREY lyrics : "I Only Wanted"

Doesn't it ever stay
Must it always fade away
Couldn't love ever be

Something tangible and real
Farewell, fairweather friend
Abandonment returns to taunt me again


I only wanted you to stay
Linger and mean the words you said

Foolishly I romanticized
Someone was saving my life
For the first time

I only wanted you to be there when I
Opened up my eyes


I was caught in your masquerade
Wish I'd 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 and mean the words you said
Foolishly I romanticized
Someone was saving my life

For the first time
I only wanted you to be there when I
Opened up my eyes


Oh
I only wanted you to stay

Linger and mean the words you said
Foolishly I romanticized
Someone was saving my life

For the first 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
