You're All I Ever Needed

I use to drink up all of our love
And get drunk in bed every night.
With you by my side,
I was at my best.

But out of the blue,
Our love turned into a full out war.
Laughter was soon tears
And you said you couldn't love me anymore.
You packed your bags and hit the door,
Leaving the last nine months behind you.

What could I say?
There’s nothing that would’ve changed your mind.
You were gone in a flash and just like that,
I’m left alone to think
About the best times,
About the worst times,
Everything we had.

Instead of drinking love,
I turned to beer instead.
Empty bottles lined the table.
What I just lost was the very thing I was living for.

Cursing at the door
And falling to the floor,
I knew I had made mistakes.
But it wasn’t just me,
It was you too.

We had unresolved issues,
Things that kept getting pushed under the rug.
I guess if we had felt some kind of love,
We would’ve made the effort.
And I know I need to move on,
So the liquor helps me forget.

Just leave it all behind and start a new chapter.
Open a new door,
See something new.
But I can’t forget your beautiful face.

I never thought you would say we’re over.
I thought that we could pull through,
Be together forever.
That’s dumb love, young love.
I wasn’t in the right place.
Looking back at us,
You’re all I ever needed.
