All I Wanted

you rave on about a car drive
 somewhere out in Germany
 you had dinner near some river
 like you can't get that with me
 and it all sounds so familiar
 I make sure to bite my tongue
 it's done nothing else but trouble
 kind of like our song
 and all because
 all I wanted was
 the best of both of us
 this must be what Robin felt like
 who'd have thought I'd fit his shoes
 how I'd smirk inside your T-shirt
 after he had called for you
 I've been him in that hotel room
 when I took it as a no
 now I'd rather be in Hamburg
 putting up our breakfast show
 and all because
 all I wanted was
 the best of both of us
 all I wanted was
 for us to get across
 for things to be like then, out there on the road
 for my mediocre jokes to work again
 we can leave tonight –
 I'll drive us past the wood
 just sit there being beautiful
 while I'll be good
 hell, I'll be good
 all I wanted
 all I wanted was
 I'm telling myself it's all for the better
