Everything You Wanted Lyrics by Kele Okereke

The Boxer

2010

[Verse 1]
I see the bags in the empty hallway
I can tell that something has changed
I see the pain written over your face
And I know I pushed you too far
If you want
To leave me
You must know
One thing
[Chorus]
I could have given you
Everything you wanted, everything you needed
I could have given you
Everything you wanted, everything you needed
I could have given you
Everything you wanted, everything you needed
I could have given you
Everything you wanted, everything you needed
[Verse 2]
I know times, I am lost and gone
I am told I'm only half-there
But you were there in my thoughts, in my head
In my heart above the left side
I know the time
For us has passed
But you must know
One thing
[Chorus]
I could have given you
Everything you wanted, everything you needed
I could have given you
Everything you wanted, everything you needed
I could have given you
Everything you wanted, everything you needed
I could have given you
Everything you wanted, everything you needed
[Bridge]
And I say, dare you, dare you harm a dear?
Though we're finding it hard to breathe
And I say, dare you, dare you harm a dear?
Though we're finding it hard to breathe
And I say, dare you, dare you harm a dear?
Though we're finding it hard to breathe
And I say, dare you, dare you harm a dear?
Though we're finding it hard to breathe
[Chorus]
I could have given you
Everything you wanted, everything you needed
I could have given you
Everything you wanted, everything you needed
I could have given you
Everything you wanted, everything you needed
I could have given you
Everything you wanted, everything you needed
