Kelly Clarkson - All I Ever Wanted Lyrics
My Life Would Suck Without You
Guess this means you're sorry
You're standing at my door
Guess this means you take back
All you said before
Like how much you wanted
Anyone but me
Said you'd never come back
But here you are again
'Cause we belong together now, yeah
Forever united here somehow, yeah
You got a piece of me
And honestly
My life (my life) would suck (would suck) without you
Maybe I was stupid
For telling you goodbye
Maybe I was wrong
For tryin' to pick a fight
I know that I've got issues
But you're pretty messed up too
Either way I found out I'm nothing without you
'Cause we belong together now, yeah
Forever united here somehow, yeah
You got a piece of me
And honestly
My life (my life) would suck (would suck) without you
Being with you is so dysfunctional
I really shouldn't miss you
But I can't let you go
Oh yeah
'Cause we belong together now, yeah yeah
Forever united here somehow, yeah
You got a piece of me
And honestly
My life (my life) would suck (would suck) without you
'Cause we belong (yeah) together now (together now), (yeah)
Forever united here somehow, yeah
You got a piece of me and honestly
My life (my life) would suck (would suck) without you

I Do Not Hook Up
Oh, sweetheart, put the bottle down
You've got too much talent
I see you through those bloodshot eyes
There's a cure, you've found it
Slow motion, sparks, you've caught that chill
Now don't deny it, but boys will be boys, oh, yes, they will
They don't wanna define it
Just give up the game and get into me
If you're looking for thrills then get cold feet
Oh, no, I do not hook up, up, I go slow
So if you want me, I don't come cheap
Keep your hand in my hand, your heart on your sleeve
Oh, no, I do not hook up, up, I fall deep
'Cause the more that you try the harder I'll fight to say goodnight
I can't cook, no, but I can clean
Up the mess she left
Lay your head down and feel the beat
As I kiss your forehead
This may not last but this is now
So love the one you're with
You wanna chase but you're chasin' your tail
A quick fix won't ever get you well
Oh, no, I do not hook up, up, I go slow
So if you want me, I don't come cheap
Keep your hand in my hand, your heart on your sleeve
Oh, no, I do not hook up, up, I fall deep
'Cause the more that you try the harder I'll fight to say
'Cause I feel, the distance
Between us, could be over
With the snap of your finger, Oh, no!
Oh, no, I do not hook up, up, I go slow
So if you want me, I don't come cheap
Keep your hand in my hand, your heart on your sleeve
Oh, no, I do not hook up, up, I fall deep
'Cause the more that you try the harder I'll fight
To say, 'cause the more that you try the harder I'll fight, to say goodnight
Oh, sweetheart, put the bottle down
'Cause you don't wanna miss out

Cry
If anyone asks
I'll tell them we both just moved on
When people all stare
I'll pretend that I don't hear them talk
Whenever I see you I'll swallow my pride and bite my tongue
Pretend I'm okay with it all
Act like there's nothing wrong
[Chorus]
Is it over yet
Can I open my eyes
Is this as hard as it gets
Is this what it feels like to really cry
Cry
If anyone asks
I'll tell them we just grew apart
What do I care if they believe me or not
Whenever I feel your memory is breaking my heart
I'll pretend I'm okay with it all
Act like there's nothing wrong
[Chorus]
I'm talking in circles
I'm lying, they know it
Why won't this just all go away
[Chorus]

Dont Let Me Stop You
I used to be a little bit shy
I kept my deepest feelings inside
Speaking up to you about my
Emotions has always been hard
But this just can't wait
Tonight I feel a little but brave
So I won't let one more day pass without you explaining what we are
[Pre-Chorus]
This is gonna sound kind of silly
But I couldn't help but notice
The last time you kissed me
You kept both eyes open
Baby can you tell me what does that mean
If you're looking over your shoulder
Then you don't need to be with me
And I don't need to hold on
[Chorus]
Don't let me stop you
From doing what you want to do
You don't want to stick, trust me it's cool
Take no chance get over you
Don't let me stop you
If you wanna leave baby you can leave
Just don't pretend that you're into me
If it ain't true
No, don't let me stop you
A lot of things I can take
Got a high threshold for pain
But let's get one thing straight
I'm not down to share you with anyone
If that's not what you're looking for
Nice knowing you but there's the door
'Cause I know that I could find someone
Who'll give me what I want
[Pre-Chorus]
This is gonna sound kind of silly
If you're looking over your shoulder
Then you don't need to be with me
And I don't need to hold on
[Chorus]
Even if I end up broken hearted
I won't lie, I don't wanna hear your goodbye
But either way I'll be alright
[Chorus]

All I Ever Wanted
Tear up the photographs
But yesterday won't let go
Every day ever day every minute
Here comes the emptiness
Just can't leave lonely alone
Every day every day ... hey hey
This second chancin's really getting me down
You givin' takin' everything I dreamed about
It's time you let me know, let me know just let go
[Chorus]
All I ever wanted
All I ever wanted
Was a simple way to get over you
All I ever wanted
All I ever wanted
Was an in between to escape this desperate scene
Where every lie reveals the truth
Baby 'cause all I ever wanted
All I ever wanted was you
I'd rather walk alone
Don't wanna chase you around
Every day every day every minute
I'd fall a thousand times
'fore I let you drag me down
Every day every day ... hey hey
Your new beginning was a perfect ending
But I keep feeling we've already been here before
It's time you let me know let me know just let go
[Chorus]
Tell me with so many out there why I always turn to you
Your goodbyes tear me down every time
And it's so easy to see
That the blame is on me
[Chorus]

Already Gone
Remember all the things we wanted
Now all our memories, they're haunted
We were always meant to say goodbye
Even with our fists held high
It never would have work out right, yeah
We were never meant for do or die
I didn't want us to burn out
I didn't come here to hurt you now I can't stop
[Chorus]
I want you to know
That it doesn't matter
Where we take this road
But someone's gotta go
And I want you to know
You couldn't have loved me better
But I want you to move on
So I'm already gone
Looking at you makes it harder
But I know that you'll find another
That doesn't always make you wanna cry
It started with the perfect kiss then
We could feel the poison set in
"Perfect" couldn't keep this love alive
You know that I love you so
I love you enough to let you go
[Chorus]
You can't make it feel right
When you know that it's wrong
I'm already gone, already gone
There's no moving on
So I'm already gone
Ahhh already gone, already gone, already gone
Ahhh already gone, already gone, already gone
Remember all the tings we wanted
Now all our memories, they're haunted
We were always meant to say goodbye
[Chorus]
You can't make it feel right
When you know that it's wrong
I'm already gone, already gone
There's no moving on
So I'm already gone

If I Cant Have You
Hearts break too fast when they're sentimental
Won't stay, won't last when it's love at first sight
So why are my convictions blinded by your spotlight
Can't breath, can't sleep
Need some medication
I've kissed goodbye to my reservations
I know there's other fish out in the seas
Not for me
I want you
[Chorus]
If I can't have you
Then I don't want anyone
I don't want anyone
If I can't have you
Then only damage has been done, baby
We can break these rules
If you wanna have some fun
If you wanna have some fun
Think of all the love that you will lose
If I can't have you
If I can't have you
Heartbeat cold sweat
Thoughts slippin' under
Can't fight no threat
'Cause there's just no use
One look, no hesitation I'm slipping into you
Forgive these eyes, these lips you're tastin'
No time to waste on an invitation
My shame, my self-control has suffered enough
And everybody wants to be loved
[Chorus]
If I can't have you
If I can't have you
I haven't seen the best that love has had to offer
They say perfection's always right around the corner
Could be true
But if I can't have you
[Chorus]
If I can't have you
If I can't have you
If I can't have you
Think of all the love that you will lose
If I can't have you

Save You
I can tell
I can tell how much you hate thins
And deep down inside
You know it's killin' me
I can call
Wish you well
And try to change this
But nothing I can say
Would change anything
Where were my senses
I left them all behind
Why did I turn away
Away
[Chorus]
I wish I could save you
I wish I could say to you
I'm not going nowhere
I wish I could say to you
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright
Didn't mean
Didn't mean to leave you stranded
Went away 'cause I didn't want to face the truth
Reachin' out
Reach for me empty handed
You don't know if I care you're trying to find the proof
There were ties I'd wonder
Could I have eased your pain
Why did I turn away
Away
[Chorus]
It's gonna be alright
Save you
I wish I could save you
[Bridge]
We can pretend nothing's changed
Pretend it's all the same
And there will be no pain tonight
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright
Save you
I wish I could save you
I'm not going no where
I wish I could say to you
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright
Save you
I wish I could save you
It's gonna be alright

Whyyawannabringmedown
This situation if it gets any deeper could be critical
I'm not your love monkey so be takin' back all of the lies you sold
What did you want me to be yeah
It's just too much now so tell me so tell me so tell me
1 2 3 4
[Chorus]
So what's your evil attitude
When you got me spendin' my time pleasing you
Why must you keep me underground
Tell me tell me whyyawannabringmedown
Is it too much to give a damn
When I'm givn' you one hundered and ten
Don't blink 'cause I won't be around
Tell me tell me whyyawannabringmedown
Now your transmission is on the negative you're on a losin' streak
This information is getting ordinary and you're losin' me
What's with your hostility
Oh when the lights on me
When you're down to the last chance
So tell me so tell me so tell me
Uno Dos Tres Quatro
[Chorus]
Was it all just a waste of time
Well I don't wanna spend my whole life thinkin' 'bout it
Baby this is where I draw the line
Think I'm done
SOMEBODY!

Long Shot
I felt it, the wire touched my neck
And then someone pulled it tighter
I never saw it coming, I started to black out
And then someone said good morning
I took it as a warning
I should have seen it coming
So now I'll take a chance on
This thing we may have started
Intentional or not, I don't think we saw it coming
It's all adding up to something
That asks for some involvement
That ask for our commitment
I think I see it coming
If we step out of that limb
My heart beat beats me senselessly
Why's everything got to be so intense with me
I'm trying to handle all this unpredictability
In all probability
It's a long shot, but I say why not
If I say forget it, I know that I'll regret it
It's a long shot just to beat these odds
The chance is we won't make it
But I know if I don't take it, there's no chance
'Cause you're the best I got
So take a long shot
I realize that there is all this starting
Things we're both scared about
That we'll never see them coming
Throw caution to the wind
And we'll see which way it's blowing
And to this pulling on
We'll never see it coming
Until it's much to close to stop
My heart beat beats me senselessly
Why's everything got to be so intense with me
I'm trying to handle all this unpredictability
In all probability
It's a long shot, but I say why not
If I say forget it, I know that I'll regret it
It's a long shot just to beat these odds
The chance is we won't make it
But I know if I don't take it, there's no chance
'Cause you're the best I got
So take a long shot
Oh I waited for fact to come of fiction
And you fit my description
I never saw you coming
But we'll make it
It's a long shot, but I say why not
If I say forget it, I know that I'll regret it
It's a long shot just to beat these odds
The chance is we won't make it
But I know if I don't take it, there's no chance, no chance
'Cause you're the best I got
It's a long shot but I say why not
If I say forget it I know that I'll regret it
It's a long shot just to beat these odds
The chance is we won't make it
But I know if I don't take it
It's a long shot but I say why not
Oh you never saw me coming

Impossible
Spoke up and thought I'd try
Try to step across the line
You know that I've been thinkin' 'bout it for a while
Yeah starting to think it's time I knee
Does me good to know I finally feel
Feel this pain, it's real
It's possible
You say
[Chorus]
Can't change the winds, you say
Won't matter anyway
Can't reach that far 'cause it's impossible
It's impossible
Can't rise above this place
Won't change your mind so I pray
Breakin' down the walls
Do the impossible
Walkin' by myself I know
This lonely road's becomin' my new home
But I don't stop, I just keep movin' on
And on
Ain't no need to dry my eyes
I haven't cried in quite some time
Every day I fight it
You know it's possible
You say
[Chorus]
Can someone tell me why it's so hard takin' chances
You draw the line and think that I won't ask for more, yeah
I will stumble and I'll make my own mistakes yeah
But I won't worry 'bout it anymore
It's impossible
[Chorus]
It's impossible to you
Not impossible for me
Not impossible for me
Spoke up and though it'd try
Try to step across the line

Ready
Frozen
Forgetful again
The part where I lose my head
The scene where I'm supposed to speak but instead
I sit and listen again
I'm stuck with these cards, I guess
Leaping from this cliff in my thoughts
I fly like stones in my heart
Drowning in doubt, for what reason?
I sit so patiently
Drenched in what you want me to be
I can't escape
[Chorus:]
I'm ready now
Oh I'm ready now
Oh I'm ready now
Come get me
Fearless
With cape in hand
Conquer what I need to mend
Little girls get so broken
But I sit so patiently
Drenched in what you want me to be
I can't seem to escape
[Chorus]
Through with golden roads and perfect love
Too much of your mouth is like too much sun
How I burn, how I burn
I was so patient waitin' for my turn
I fly like stones
As I break every bone
Come get me
[Chorus x2]

I Want You
Hot temper with the shortest fuse
You're such a mess with an attitude
You're workin' hard but you're payin' more
You never talk 'cause you don't have to
You gotta job but you hate the man
Who takes it all like 'Uncle Sam'
I want you
I want you
Outta gas so you walk for miles
To pick me up in your warn out shoes
You never settle, never take too much
You count on me just like I count on you
Kiss me, like when I first saw you
You figured out I couldn't be without you
You
I want you [3x]
No one else will do (I want)
No one makes me smile (I want)
No one gets me how (I want)
No else is you
I want you [4x]
You're so hot tempered
With the shortest fuse
You're such a mess
And with an attitude
You
I want you [3x]
No one else will do (I want)
No one makes me smile (I want)
No one gets me how (I want)
No else is you
I want you [5x]
You and me walkin' together
Screwing up for worse or for better
You
I want you

If No One Will Listen
Maybe no one told you
There is strength in your tears
And so you fight to keep from pouring out
But what if you unlock the gate that keeps your secret soul
Do you think there's enough to that you might drown?
[Chorus]
If no one will listen
If you decide to speak
If no one is left
Standing after the bombs explode
If no one wants to look at you
For what you really are
I will be here still
No one can tell you where you alone must go
There's no telling what you will find there
And, God, I know the fear that eats away at your bones
Screaming every step, "Just stay here"
[Chorus]
If you find your fists are raw and red from beating yourself down
If your legs have given out under the weight
If you find that you've been settling for a world of gray
So you wouldn't have to face down your own hate
[Chorus x2]
