Shinedown - All I Ever Wanted Lyrics

Artist: Shinedown

Album: Leave A Whisper

  • Songwriters: Brent Smith, Brad Stewart, Jasin Todd

I lie here alone and wonder why
That I come alive just before I have to hide

'Cause I believe I'm losing my nerve
But could I ever do better than this?

'Cause all I ever wanted was a place to call my home
To shelter me when I am there and to miss me when I'm gone
All I've ever wanted was a place to call my own
Where stars will dance and sun still shines
And the storms feel free to roam

I listen if only for a while
But I can't decide if I'm aware that I'm on trial

'Cause I believe I'm losing my nerve
But could I ever do better than this?

'Cause all I ever wanted was a place to call my home
To shelter me when I am there and to miss me when I'm gone
All I've ever wanted was a place to call my own
Where stars will dance and sun still shines
And the storms feel free to roam

If there's a way to a remedy then lead me straight to it
If there's a path or a door I missed then show me now
Then show me this

'Cause all I ever wanted was a place to call my home
To shelter me when I am there and to miss me when I'm gone
'Cause all I've ever wanted was a place to call my own
Where stars will dance and sun still shines
And the storms feel free to roam
Feel free when I am gone
