Kirsty MacColl All I Ever Wanted lyrics

I'm nearly sober and I can see the truth
I'm not immune to the sorrow that you put me through
All I ever wanted was a little more respect from you

I used to love you, but now I feel abused
I was a fool to be blind to the things you do
All I ever wanted was a little more respect from you

I'll never understand
The habits of a man out on the town
And where he hangs around

Now you think it over, decide what to do
I couldn't fall for your story if I wanted to
All I ever wanted was a little more respect from you


I tried to make you see
That you were losing me but everyday
You still went out to play

Now I'll say for the last time, you had the chance
And I won't dance for you baby, like you want me to
All I ever wanted was a little more respect from you

All I ever wanted was a little more respect from you
All I ever wanted was a little more respect
