Lyrics
All She Ever Wanted
V1
She used to kiss her mama's bruises,
there were times she needed kisses too.
He seldom hit her brother
but her little sister got a few.
So men met all her expectations,
after her daddy they were pretty low.
She never dared imagine
I'd help heal her wounds from so long ago.
Chorus 1:
ALL SHE EVER WANTED
WAS TENDERNESS AND GENTLE WORDS
MAYBE THE LUXURY OF SIMPLY BEING HEARD
THINGS NO MAN HAD GIVEN HER BEFORE
I GAVE HER ALL SHE EVER WANTED
TILL SHE WAS STRONG ENOUGH FOR MORE
V2
Her heart was like an injured sparrow,
that's afraid to trust the healing hand;
took years for her to speak up
longer still for me to understand
that she would see her daddy's shadow
every time I reached out to her.
She heard her daddy saying,
"What you want is more than you deserve".
Chorus 1:
ALL SHE EVER WANTED
WAS TENDERNESS AND GENTLE WORDS
MAYBE THE LUXURY OF SIMPLY BEING HEARD
THINGS NO MAN HAD GIVEN HER BEFORE
I GAVE HER ALL SHE EVER WANTED
TILL SHE WAS STRONG ENOUGH FOR MORE
Bridge: Time and loving care
can heal the sparrow's wing.
Time and loving care
can heal 'most anything.
Chorus 2:
NOW SHE'S FIN'LLY HAPPY
WITH TENDERNESS AND GENTLE WORDS
MUST BE THE CERTAINTY OF TRULY BEING HEARD
THINGS NO MAN HAD GIVEN HER BEFORE
I GAVE HER ALL SHE EVER WANTED
GLAD NOW I CAN GIVE HER MORE
Tag: NOW SHE'S GOT WHAT SHE?D ALWAYS WANTED
HER DADDY DOESN'T HAUNT HER ANYMORE
