Just The Wanting

Walter Egan


Did you ever believe a dream was real, 
Like a magical surprise... 
So you live off what you feel, 
Just a glimpse of paradise... 
Then you wake and find it's gone 
And all that's left you is the song... 

Just the wanting alone is worth it 
Just the thrill and desire... 
Just the wanting alone is worth the fire 
Just the wanting alone is worth it 
Just the thrill and desire... 
Just the wanting...a lone desire 

I remember when I was seventeen 
And my life had just begun... 
All I needed was a dream 
And I always found me one 
But the dream, it always died 
And the joy is in the change... 

Just the wanting alone was worth it 
Just the thrill and desire... 
Just the wanting alone was worth the fire 
Just the wanting alone was worth it 
Just the thrill and desire... 
Just the wanting...a lone desire 
Just the wanting...a lone desire
