WHAT WE REALLY WANT~by Roseanne Cash
We tried to make ourselves pay
For something we'd never done
We threw the best parts of life away
On street talk and strangers and drugs
But what we really want is love
What we really need is love
I want to call out your name
I want to hold out my hand
The woman silent in the mirror tonight
Wants to talk to your mirror man
And what they really want is love
What they really need is love
We are ships in the night
The water's deep in between
The air is freezing and we can't find the light
So we sail off into our dreams
But what we really dream of is love
What we really need is love
I tried to make it feel right
in someone else's world
I sat and looked out my window last night
and knew that things had changed for this girl
Because what I had really found was love
What I really feel is love.
