Lyrics of everything i wanted by Billie Eilish

verse

I had a dream
I got everything I wanted
Not what you′d think
And if I'm bein′ honest
It might've been a nightmare
To anyone who might care
Thought I could fly (fly)
So I stepped off the Golden, mm
Nobody cried (cried, cried, cried, cried)
Nobody even noticed
I saw them standing right there
Kinda thought they might care (might care, might care)

pre-chorus

I had a dream
I got everything I wanted
But when I wake up, I see
You with me
And you say

chorus

"As long as I'm here, no one can hurt you
Don′t wanna lie here, but you can learn to
If I could change the way that you see yourself
You wouldn′t wonder why you hear, 'They don′t deserve you'"

verse

I tried to scream
But my head was underwater
They called me weak
Like I′m not just somebody's daughter
Could′ve been a nightmare
But it felt like they were right there
And it feels like yesterday was a year ago
But I don't wanna let anybody know
'Cause everybody wants something from me now
And I don′t wanna let ′em down

pre-chorus

I had a dream
I got everything I wanted
But when I wake up, I see
You with me
And you say

chorus

"As long as I'm here, no one can hurt you
Don′t wanna lie here, but you can learn to
If I could change the way that you see yourself
You wouldn't wonder why you hear, ′They don't deserve you′"

hook

If I knew it all then, would I do it again?
Would I do it again?
If they knew what they said would go straight to my head
What would they say instead?
If I knew it all then, would I do it again?
Would I do it again?
If they knew what they said would go straight to my head
What would they say instead?
