Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I fell asleep on the windowsill
Head full of snacks and places to chill
Dreamt I had a yacht with a silver bowl
A velvet bed and my own remote control
There were treats on trays
And a chef who stayed
Just to ask me, “Do you want cheese today?”
But even with all that… something felt strange
[Pre-Chorus]
I had it all but I still felt (alone)
No tennis ball could bring me (home)
[Chorus]
All I really want is (you)
Not the view, not the pool, not a million chews
I could chase the world and bark at the moon
But it don’t shine bright without (you) in the room
I could dream forever and still it comes true
That all I really want is (you)
[Verse 2]
Next I ruled a mansion wide and tall
Gold leash, big throne, bones down the hall
Playground stairs I could climb all day
But no one said “Good boy” when I made it half way
Tried the slide
But it felt too wide
Without your laugh echoing by my side
[Pre-Chorus]
All the squeaky toys just felt the same
If I can’t hear you say my name
[Chorus]
All I really want is (you)
Not the fame, not the game, not a billion chews
I could fly on clouds and catch every star
But it don’t mean nothin’ if you’re that far
I could dream forever and still it comes true
That all I really want is (you)
[Bridge]
I woke up slow
You were near
Your hand on my head, your voice so (clear)
And I knew…
Every dream leads me back to...
[Chorus]
All I really want is (you)
Not a palace, not gold, not a mountain of chews
You’re my treat, my walk, my sky so blue
You’re the reason I wag, the heart I knew
I could dream forever and still it comes true
That all I really want…
All I really want…
Is (you)
