All I Want Is You

There are some who want the world,
Well all I want is you

Some people want diamonds and gold,
For me your heart will do

I’d take your smile above the stars,
which glow through darken nights

Your smile shines bright into my heart,
providing it your light

Majestic mountains line our view,
exuding their mystic

But none are equal to your eyes,
so dark and ever deep

I find a rose so petal soft,
alluring to the touch

But none so soft as those your lips,
I long to kiss so much

A gentle breeze can cool the day,
and lighten the densest air

But I much rather gently run,
my fingers through your hair

You can have the world, the riches too,
and keep the stars above

Don’t want the mountains, the rose
or breeze for it is you I love

If you could peer within my mind,
there’s one thing you would see

There’d be an image of myself,
with you right next to me
