All Of My Life

Steve Earle


I guess I don't get out too much 
If it wasn't enough I hear all these voices 
Always tellin' me that I'm bad 
But it's all in my head - like all those scary noises 

chorus 
I've been waiting all of my life 
All of my life 
I've been waiting all of my life 
All of my life 

Some nights when I'm laying in bed 
Wish I was dead - and I know you'd never miss me 
But I know where you go when you dream 
Strange as that seems 'cause I never even kissed you 

chorus 

Everybody wants to be somebody's somethin' 
Ain't nobody wants to be blue 
Ain't nobody anywhere ever loved nothin' 
Half as much as I love you 
Somebody somewhere said "love is a prison" 
But no one really wants to be free 
I'd have to be crazy to ever think someone 
Could love a nobody like me 

I'm here alone in the dark 
But I know where you are 
'Cause I can hear you breathin' 
Come a little closer you'll find 
You were meant to be mine 
'Cause you're the only reason
