All I Need Lyrics

All I need
Is right here on my sleeve
You get what you get with me, girl
You get the grace and the stain
Count to three and I'll be on my knees
Tryin' to set you free, girl
Tryin' hard to make you see

My love is here to stay
My love is here to stay
Open your heart
You can find your own way
I found they're all the same
My love is here to stay

All I need
Is witherin' on that dream
The fruit of all knowledge, darlin'
The one you were supposed to give to me
Now I sit here
Like a buddha in this chair
Watchin' your spectacle unfold
I'm sorry, I don't mean to stare

But baby, my love is here to stay
My love is here to stay
Open your heart
You can find your own way
I found they're all the same
My love is here to stay, yeah

Like the sun that shines behind the mind
Like the one before all days go by
Like the sun that shines behind our
Like the sun that shines behind the mind

Oh, it shines
Oh, how it shines

All I need
Is right here on my sleeve
You get what you get with me, girl

Selling The Drama

All I need 
Is right here on my sleeve 
You get what you get with me, girl 
You get the grace and the stain 
Count to three and I'll be on my knees 
Tryin' to set you free, girl 
Tryin' hard to make you see

My love is here to stay 
My love is here to stay 
Open your heart 
You can find your own way 
I found they're all the same 
My love is here to stay

All I need 
Is witherin' on that dream 
The fruit of all knowledge, darlin' 
The one you were supposed to give to me 
Now I sit here 
Like a buddha in this chair 
Watchin' your spectacle unfold 
I'm sorry, I don't mean to stare

But baby, my love is here to stay 
My love is here to stay 
Open your heart 
You can find your own way 
I found they're all the same 
My love is here to stay, yeah

Like the sun that shines behind the mind 
Like the one before all days go by 
Like the sun that shines behind our 
Like the sun that shines behind the mind

Oh, it shines 
Oh, how it shines

All I need 
Is right here on my sleeve 
You get what you get with me, girl

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I find it interesting no one has commented on this song.I'll agree it is a little different from Ed's usual deep messages and kind of popish to boot but worthy of a listen never the less. Now the question is he really signing it to a girl whose heart he trying to capture or perhaps a friend searching for spiritual balance?
