Lyrics

living life in the present tense wasn't good enough
she'd been stuck here too long
just a victim of circumstance now she's lost control
writing's there on the wall, but she don't wanna see
no she don't wanna see
i know it's hard to let it go but...

all she ever wanted was to be wanted (ava, ava)
all she ever wanted was to be wanted (ava)
oh, ava

looking real hard she's bound to find an excuse to stay
it's so close but so far
wasting time on this heart of mine is a job full-time
24-7 and
it's enough to drive a girl to tear apart that lovesick heart

all she ever wanted was to be wanted (ava, ava)
all she ever wanted was to be wanted (ava, ava)
just a wounded woman willing to fight for it
and i regret i couldn't give her what she
couldn't give her what she wanted

time. there's no time to be blind
just the ease to stay confined
there's no time to be kind
to the ones you leave behind
there's no time to be kind
to the ones you leave behind
leave behind

all she ever wanted was to be wanted (ava, ava)
all she ever wanted was to be wanted (ava, ava)
just a wounded woman willing to fight for it (ava)
and i regret i couldn't give her what she
couldn't give her what she wanted

and now the dance is over
lights go up the dance is over...
