I Only Wanted You Lyrics

I never wanted that mansion on a hill.
I never needed that Cadillac Seville.
I only wanted you
I only wanted you.

I never wanted those diamonds on my hand
I was happy with just a wedding band.
I only wanted you
I only wanted you.

I just wanted to have your arms around me.
I just needed to feel your love surround me.
And now that we're apart, it breaks my heart in two.
'Cause you never really had a clue I only wanted you.

Instead of always giving me something else
I wish just once you'd given me yourself.
I only wanted you,
I only wanted you.

I just wanted to have your arms around me.
I just needed to feel your love surround me.
And now that we're apart, it breaks my heart in two.
That you never even had a clue, I only wanted you.

I only wanted you.
I only wanted you.

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.
