All I Need Is You
December 18th, 2010

I can’t help that I think
About the past
The Present
and What could be in the future

I can’t help to miss you when you’re not there
I can’t help to think about you when you’re gone
I can’t help to want to talk to you constantly
I can’t help that I put you first.

I love you more than you know
You are the one I chose
The one I want
The one I can’t live without

When I am with you, I have no doubts
With one word you can change my mood
My world, every emotion
The power you have over me,
Is as scary as it sounds.

It’s not my words, but my actions that should prove
That no matter what, I will always love you.
And I hope you will see
That all I need
Is the same thing.

by Matthew Henrickson

The flowers I got you
Just sit and look beautiful
They drink their water
Soon it runs dry.

The flowers
that I once bought for you
That made me smile
And drank that water
No longer are there.

They withered away and died
They never made you smile
You never noticed the effort
You never stopped to smell the roses
You never saw me trying.

by Matthew Henrickson

I try to hold you close
And you push me away
Somehow it’s not the same
How could you be so heartless?

I try to figure out your life
But you tell me to stay out of your business
You ask me where I’m going
Just so you can be alone
When did being together start to mean we weren’t alone?
How could you be so heartless?

I try to tell you I love you
To show you
Bring it back to when I felt
Like you loved me.
For what I took for granted.
Fopr what you don’t seem to care for.

How could we be so heartless?

Inspired by the song of course. Check out the Heartless Lyrics by Kayne West.

T-Shirt Lyrics by Shontelle

Try’na decide Try’na decide
If I really wanna go out tonight
I never used to go out without ya
Not sure I remember how ta

Gonna be late Gonna be late
But, all my girls don’t have to wait ’cause
I dont know if I like my outfit
I tried everything in my closet

(Chorus)
Nothin feels right when Im not with you
Sick of this dress and these Jimmy Choos
Takin them off ’cause I feel a fool
Try’na dress up when Im missin you

Imma step out of this lingerie
Curl up in a ball with something Hanes
In bed I lay

With nothing but your T-shirt on
With nothing but your T-shirt on

(Verse 2)
Hey

Gotta be strong gotta be strong but Im
Really hurtin now that you’re gone
I thought maybe I’d do some shopping
But I couldnt get past the door and

Now I dont know, now I dont know If Im
Ever really gonna let you go
And I couldnt even leave my apartment
I’m stripped down, torn up about it

(Chorus)
Nothin feels right when Im not with you
Sick of this dress and these Jimmy Choos
Takin them off ’cause I feel a fool
Try’na dress up when Im missin’ you

Im’a step out of this lingerie
Curl up in a ball with something Hanes
In bed I lay

With nothing but your T-shirt on
With nothing but your T-shirt on
With nothing but your T-shirt on
(’cause I missed you, ’cause I missed you)
With nothing but your T-shirt on
(said I missed you … baby)

(Repeated On Verse 2)
Now I dont know, now I dont know If Im
Ever really gonna let you go
And I couldnt even leave my apartment I’m stripped down, torn up about it

(Half Chorus)
Nothing feels right when Im not with you
Sick of this dress and these Jimmy Choos
Taking them off ’cause I feel a fool
Try’na dress up when Im missin you

Imma step out of this lingerie
Curl up in a ball with something Hanes
In bed I lay

(Chorus)
Nothing feels right when Im not with you
Sick of this dress and these Jimmy Choos
Taking them off ’cause I feel a fool
Try’na dress up when Im missin you

Imma step out of this lingerie
Curl up in a ball with something Hanes
In bed I lay

With nothing but your T-shirt on
With nothing but your T-shirt on
With nothing but your T-shirt on
With nothing but your T-shirt on

If I wrote you a poem everyday
Would you read it?
If I wrote you a song everyday
Would you sing it?
If I said I loved you everyday
Would you hear it?

I’ve written you everyday
And you didn’t read it.
I’ve written you a song everyday
And you didn’t sing it.
And I’ve loved you everyday
And you didn’t feel it.
