All I thought of was you
People: they say I made a mistake,
wanted me down a path I would not take.
They said I didn't get a clue;
but I sought out the message, I saw the truth.
In my mind all I thought of was you --
Zoom out the picture, put it in view.
Give it all away, give it all for free;
pour it out a river, pour it out a sea.
