"I Never Wanted Anything More Than I Wanted You" lyrics

"I Never Wanted Anything More Than I Wanted You"

I'm at my lowest, caught in a moment
Tryna to get over this
All of the marks I've logged on the page
The waiting has got me sick
I can't get away from it now
I can't get away from it now

I try to think lightly, picture the lines
And hope that the feeling sticks
Where we're all smiling, holding the prize
I can almost imagine it
But I can't even let myself now
I can't even let myself now

I feel you in the sea, washing over me
Something in the movin' tides
Every fallen leaf seems to say to me
"Everything in time"

I never wanted anything more than I wanted you
I never wanted anything more than I wanted you
Come back to me
Come back to me
I never wanted anything more than I wanted you

I look at the trees and fall into pieces
God I am sick of this
If I believe that this is for me
Can I make the most of it?
I can feel the weight of it now
I can feel the weight of it now

I feel you in the sea, washing over me
Something in the movin' tides
Every fallen leaf seems to say to me
"Everything in time"

I never wanted anything more than I wanted you
I never wanted anything more than I wanted you
Come back to me
Come back to me
I never wanted anything more than I wanted you

Kina Grannis explained in the description of the official music video for "I Never Wanted Anything More Than I Wanted You", "The first time these words came out of my mouth I immediately started crying. There's something powerful that happens when you admit to yourself out loud the extent to which you are yearning for something, the extent to which you are hurting. It can break your heart into a million little pieces, but somehow that's better than the pressure cooker of trying to dismiss your emotions and make them smaller." She produced the song by herself.
