Steve Earle - All My Life lyrics

I guess I don't get out too much
If that wasn't enough
I hear all these voices
Always telling me that I'm bad
But, it's all in my head
Like all those scary noises

I've been waiting all of my life
All of my life
I've been waiting all of my life
All of my life

Some nights when I'm laying in bed
I wish I was dead
And I know you'd never miss me
But, I know where you go when you dream
Strange as that seems
Because I never even kissed you

I've been waiting all of my life
All of my life
I've been waiting all of my life
All of my life

Everybody wants to be somebody's something
Ain't nobody wants to be blue
Ain't nobody anywhere ever loved nothing
Half as much as I love you
Somebody somewhere said "love is a prison"
But no one really wants to be free
I'd have to be crazy to ever think someone
Could love a nobody like me

I'm here all alone in the dark
But, I know where you are
'Cause, I can hear you breathing
Come a little closer you'll find
You were meant to be mine
'Cause you're the only reason

I've been waiting all of my life
All of my life
I've been waiting all of my life
All of my life

I've been waiting all of my life
All of my life
I've been waiting all of my life
All of my life
