All I ever wanted

All I ever wanted

All I ever wanted was to make my parents proud and do well

All I ever wanted was to be a Mum, a child to call my own 

All I ever wanted was to have a home - nothing fancy, but somewhere to be proud

All I ever wanted was to have someone to love, to love me

All I ever wanted was a happy life, nothing fancy, but to enjoy it 

All I ever wanted was the basics 

All I ever wanted was fairness

All I ever wanted was truth, trust

All I ever wanted was a true partner, to support each other and be a team

All I ever wanted was a little family to look out for one another 

I never wanted lies

I never wanted arguing

I never wanted the fancy things in life

I never wanted heartache and hurt

I never wanted to live a lie

I never wanted to struggle 

All I ever wanted was us

What I thought was us

What I thought we had

What I thought we would be

Now it’s just hurt anger lies and letdowns

It’s not all I ever wanted at all
