When we met, I told her I'd give her the moon And I did on a silver spoon If I'd only known the promise I kept would be wrong Well she might not be gone Now it's easy to see The only thing she needed from me
Was more love, more time More of her knowing that she's on my mind More of my heart would have suited her fine That's what she was dreaming of She only needed more love
She tried telling me time and again But I didn't listen back then Oh my God, it took her saying goodbye To finally open up my eyes If my prayers came true I know just what I'd do
I'd give her more love, more time More of her knowing that she's on my mind More of my heart would have suited her fine Cause that's what she was dreaming of She needed more love, more time Less of the things that money can buy More of my arms just holding her tight When it all adds up to the bottom line The answer's the same every time Of all that she was dreaming of She only needed more love
I nearly gave her enough She only needed more love
