All I Ever Wanted

Kelly Clarkson All I Ever Wanted Lyrics
1.My Life Would Suck Without You( )

Lyricist:
Writer(s):

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 would suck without you

Maybe I was stupid for telling you goodbye
Maybe I was wrong for trying to pick a fight
I know that I've got issues
But you're pretty messed up too
Anyway 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 would suck without you

Being with you is so dysfunctional
I really shouldn't miss you
But I can't let go
Oh yeah

'Cause we belong together now, yeah
Forever united here somehow, yeah
You got a piece of me and honestly
My life would suck without you
'Cause we belong together now, yeah
Forever united here somehow, yeah
You got a piece of me and honestly
My life would suck without you


2.I Do Not Hook Up

Lyricist:
Writer(s):

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 want to 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
And 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 find to say goodnight

I can't cook no, but I can clean up
The mess you 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 want to chase but you're chasing 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
And 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 find to say goodnight

'Cause I feel the distance between us
Could be over with a snap of your finger

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
And 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 find to say goodnight
To say
Cause the more that you try,
the harder I'll fight
To say goodnight
Oh, sweetheart, put the bottle down
Cause I don't wanna miss out


3.Cry

Lyricist:Kelly Clarkson
Writer(s):Kelly Clarkson

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

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
Yeah 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

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

I'm talking in circles
I'm lying, they know it
Why won't this just all go away

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


4.Don't Let Me Stop You

Lyricist:Kelly Clarkson
Writer(s):Kelly Clarkson

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 bit brave
So I won't let one more day
Pass me by without you explaining what we are

This is going to 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

Don't let me stop you
From doing what you want to do
You don't want to stick to just me, it's cool
Take no chance, get over you
No, no, don't let me stop you
If you want to 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 I can find someone
Who'll give me what I want

This is going to 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

Don't let me stop you
From doing what you want to do
You don't want to stick to just me, it's cool
Take no chance, get over you
No, no, don't let me stop you
If you want to 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

Even if I end up broken-hearted
I won't lie, I don't want to hear goodbye
But either way I'll be alright

Don't let me stop you
From doing what you want to do
You don't want to stick to just me, it's cool
Take no chance, get over you
No, no, don't let me stop you
If you want to 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
Don't let me stop you
From doing what you want to do
You don't want to stick to just me, it's cool
Take no chance, get over you
No, no, don't let me stop you
If you want to 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


5.All I Ever Wanted

Tear up the photographs
But yesterday won't let go
Every way, every day, every minute
Here comes the emptiness
Just can't leave lonely alone
Every way, every day, hey-hey

This second chancing is really getting me down
You give and taking everything I dreamed about
It's time you let me know
Let me know, just let go

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 way, every day, every minute
I've fallen a thousand times
For I let you drag me down
Every way, 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

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

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 they'll blame this on me

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
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


6.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've worked out right
We were never meant for do or die

I didn't want us to burn out
I didn't come here to hold you
Now I can't stop

I want you to know that it doesn't matter
Where we take this road
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 want to cry
Started with a 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

I want you to know that it doesn't matter
Where we take this road
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

I'm already gone, already gone
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

Remember all the things we wanted
Now all our memories, they're haunted
We were always meant to say goodbye

I want you to know that it doesn't matter
Where we take this road
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

I'm already gone, already gone
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


7.If I Can't Have You

Lyricist:
Writer(s):

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 breathe, can't sleep with some medication
I'll kiss goodbye to my reservations
I know there's other fish out in the sea
Not for me, I want you

If I can't have you, then I don't want anyone
If I can't have you, then all the damage has been done
Baby, you can't break these rules
If you wanna have some fun
Think of all the love that you will lose
If I can't have you

Heartbeat, cold sweat, thoughts slipping 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 tasting
No time to waste on an invitation
My shame, my self-control has suffered enough
And everybody wants to be loved

If I can't have you, then I don't want anyone
If I can't have you, then all the damage has been done
Baby, you can't break these rules
If you wanna have some fun
Think of all the love that you will lose
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

If I can't have you, then I don't want anyone
If I can't have you, then all the damage has been done
Baby, you can't break these rules
If you wanna have some fun
Think of all the love that you will lose
If I can't have you


8.Save You

Lyricist:Kelly Clarkson
Writer(s):Kelly Clarkson

I can tell, I can tell how much you hate this
And deep down inside, you know it's killing 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

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...

I didn't mean, didn't mean to leave you stranded
Went away 'cause I didn't want to face the truth
Reaching out, reach for me empty-handed
You don't know if I care
You're trying to find the proof

There were times I'd wonder
Could I have eased your pain
Why did I turn away
Away

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 all right....

We can pretend nothing's changed
Pretend it's all the same
And there would be no pain tonight
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright
Save you, I wish I could save you

I'm not going nowhere
I wish I could say to you
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright
Save you, I wish I could save you
It's gonna be alright


9.Whyyawannabringmedown

Lyricist:Kelly Clarkson
Writer(s):Kelly Clarkson

This situation, if it gets any deeper could be critical
I'm not your love monkey so be taking back all the lies you sold
What did you want me to be
It's just too much now
So tell me so tell me so tell me one two three four

So what's your evil attitude
When you got me spending my time pleasing you
Why must you keep me underground
Tell me tell me, why you wanna bring me down?
Is it too much to give a damn
When I'm giving you one hundred and ten
Don't blink cause I won't be around
Tell me tell me, why you wanna bring me down

Now your transmission is on the negative
You're on a losing streak
This information is getting ordinary and you're losing me
What's with your hostility when the lie's on me
Well you're down to the last chance
So tell me so tell me
Uno dos tres cuatro

So what's your evil attitude
When you got me spending my time pleasing you
Why must you keep me underground
Tell me tell me, why you wanna bring me down
Is it too much to give a damn
When I'm giving you one hundred and ten
Don't blink cause I won't be around
Tell me tell me, why you wanna bring me down

Was it all just a waste of time
I don't wanna spend my whole life thinking bout it
Baby this is where I draw the line, I think I'm done

So what's your evil attitude
When you got me spending my time pleasing you
Why must you keep me underground
Tell me tell me, why you wanna bring me down
Is it too much to give a damn
When I'm giving you one hundred and ten
Don't blink cause I won't be around
Tell me tell me, why you wanna bring me down


10.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
'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, there's no chance
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


11.Impossible

Just woke up and thought I'd try
Try to step across the line
You know that I've been thinking about it for a while, yeah
Starting to think it's time I leave
Does me good to know I finally feel
I feel this pain, it's real, it's possible

You say can't change the winds
You say won't matter anyway
Can't reach that far 'cause it's impossible
Can't rise above this place
Won't change your mind, so I pray
Breaking the walls down to the impossible

Walking by myself, I know
This lonely road's becoming my new home
But I don't stop, I just keep moving 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 can't change the winds
You say won't matter anyway
Can't reach that far 'cause it's impossible
Can't rise above this place
Won't change your mind, so I pray
Breaking the walls down to the impossible

Can someone tell me why it's so hard taking chances
You draw the line and think that I won't ask for more
I will stumble and I'll make my own mistakes, yeah
But I won't worry about it anymore
It's impossible

You say can't change the winds
You say won't matter anyway
Can't reach that far 'cause it's impossible
Can't rise above this place
Won't change your mind, so I pray
Breaking the walls down to the impossible

It's impossible to you, not impossible for me
Not impossible for me
Can't rise above this place
Won't change your mind, so I pray
Breaking the walls down to the impossible

Just woke up and thought I'd try
Try to step across the line


12.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 the stones in my heart
Drowning in doubt
For what reason

I sit, so patiently
Drenched in all of this shit
I can't escape

I'm ready now
Ohhh
I'm ready now
Ohhh
I'm ready now
Come get me

Fearless with cape in hand
Conquer what I need to to mend
Little girls get so broken

I sit, so patiently
Drenched in all of this shit
I can't see no escape

I'm ready now
Ohhh
I'm ready now
Ohhh
I'm ready now
Come get me

........

I'm ready now
Ohhh
I'm ready now
Ohhh
I'm ready now
Come get me
I'm ready now
Ohhh
I'm ready now
Ohhh
I'm ready now
Come get me


13.I Want You

Lyricist:
Writer(s):

Hot-tempered with the shortest fuse
You're such a mess with an attitude
You're working hard, but you're paying more
You never talk if you don't have to
You got a job, but you hate the man
Who takes it all like Uncle Sam
I want you, you, you, you-you, you-you
I, I, I-I-I, I want you

Out of gas, so you walk for miles
To pick me up in your worn 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
I figured out I couldn't be without you
You, you, you, you,-you, you-you
I, I, I-I-I, I want you
You, you, you, you-you, you-you
I, I, I-I-I, I want you

No one will else will do
(I want) No one makes me smile
(I want) No one gets me how
I want no one else, it's you
You, you, you
I want you, you-you, you-you
I, I, I-I-I, I want you

You're so hot-tempered with the shortest fuse
You're such a mess with an attitude

You, you, you, you-you, you-you
I, I, I-I-I, I want you
I want you, you-you, you-you
I, I, I-I-I, I want you

No one will else will do
(I want) No one makes me smile
(I want) No one gets me how
I want no one else, it's you
You, you, you
I want you, you-you, you-you
I, I, I-I-I, I want you
You, you, you-you, you-you
I, I, I-I-I, I want you

You and me, walking together
Screwing up, for worse or for better

You, you, you-you, you-you
I, I, I-I-I, I want you


14.If No One Will Listen

Lyricist:
Writer(s):

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 that there's enough you might drown

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
It's screaming every step, 'just stay here'

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

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 you've been settling for a world of gray
So you wouldn't have to face down your own hate

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
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


15.Tip of My Tongue(BONUS TRACKS)

Never saw 'I Love You' as a trend
'Cause I don't really work like that
I mean what I say when it levaes my lips, oh
Nothin' you could say woyld change my heart
'Cause I don't really love like that
If you'd only let me in I'd show ya
But I'm tired of workin' so hard

You keep pushin' me away
Tearin' down your walls
Is forcing me to break
Don't know what to say will you ever let me in
It's hard for me to pretend
So tell me what you wanna do
Tell me is there any other way

'Cause goodbye's on the tip of my tongue
Tell me there's a rason to stay
Cause I'm about to get up and run
Better think about the words you say
If you don't wanna end up alone
Tell me is there any room for me
Cause when it's all said and done babe
I'm tired of singin'
Oh, ooooooooh.
Goodbye's on the tip of my tongue
Oh, ooooooooh.
Goodbye's on the tip of my ...

Never confuse me with where you've been
Cause I don't really work like that
If I'm holdin you then I'm all in
I know you're scared, yeah you've been burned
But I won't ever hurt you like that
If you'd take a chance I'm not like them, them them

Give and get nothin' in return
You don't seem to care
You're not the only one who hurt
Tell me is there any other way

'Cause goodbye's on the tip of my tongue
Tell me there's a rason to stay
Cause I'm about to get up and run
Better think about the words you say
If you don't wanna end up alone
Tell me is there any room for me
Cause when it's all said and done babe
I'm tired of singin'
Oh, ooooooooh.
Goodbye's on the tip of my tongue
Oh, ooooooooh.

Why ya gotta pull away
Pull away and leave me hangin'
Why ya gotta make me say
Don't make me say what you've been thinkin' all along

Oh, ooooooooh.
Goodbye's on the tip of my tongue
Oh, ooooooooh.
I'm about to get up and run(is there any other way)

'Cause goodbye's on the tip of my tongue
Tell me there's a rason to stay
Cause I'm about to get up and run
Better think about the words you say
If you don't wanna end up alone
Tell me is there any room for me

16.The Day We Fell Apart(BONUS TRACKS)

LET'S GO !!!

What happened to the man who used to take me straight into
misery
I want you back and now I must admit it shames me
How could this be?
Tell me what's this desperation
Cause I don't recognize this changed
I think I made a bad mistake

Cause once I ran away
I loved you since the day, the day I broke your heart
It's more than I could take
I loved you since the day, the day we fell apart
Now everything is coming undone
Cause you were the chance I can't afford to waste
I love you since the day, the day we fell apart

I must admit the grass is so much greener on the other side
Since you left I noticed now you're so much meaner
And it's something I think I like
Tell me what's this desperation
Cause I don't recognize he's changed
I think I made a bad mistake

Cause once I ran away
I loved you since the day, the day I broke your heart
It's more than I could take
I loved you since the day, the day we fell apart
Now everything is coming undone
Cause you were the chance I can't afford to waste
I love you since the day, the day we fell apart

I made a bad mistake
Used to pray for sins
Drowning you one more time
And mend my wicked ways

Cause once I ran away
I loved you since the day, the day I broke your heart
It's more than I could take
I loved you since the day, the day we fell apart
Now everything is coming undone (coming undone)
Cause You were the chance I can't afford to waste
I love you since the day, the day we fell apart
The day we fell apart
