All I Need Is You

I don’t need to have food to eat
Or have a drop of water to drink
I can’t feel what it is to be blue
All I need is you!

The sun doesn’t need to shine
No reason to shade my eyes
Neither does the moon have to light the night sky
All I need is you!

There’s no need to sleep
Or to let bad feelings creep into my mind
I don’t even worry about the time
All I need is you!

I don’t have to work my fingers to the bone
Dress up in a brand new shirt and shoes
Or Worry about the hurt of being alone
All I need is you!

I don’t think about living a long life
Having riches to make my world feel full
Don’t think anymore about all the strife
All I need is you!

Not a damn thing do I have to have
To truly feel like I’m free
Just the love that you send which shows me
All I need is you!
