All That We Needed

Plain White T's · All That We Needed [2004]

If you could come clean about everything,

It would be easy for me

To be sorry.

If you could see all the possiblities,

We might not still be standing

Where we started.



Oh no, don't let me go for this,

Don't let me go for this.



I might be a fool,

But you might be one too,

Maybe we're all that we needed.

Two wrongs don't make a right,

But I don't care tonight,

Maybe we're all that we needed.



You could say we were just a big mistake,

I think it's worth making,

And worth repeating.

I would say good things come to those who wait,

I would say anything,

If you'd believe it.



Oh no,

Don't let me go for this,

Don't let me go for this.



I might be a fool,

But you might be one too,

Maybe we're all that we needed.

Two wrongs don't make a right,

But I don't care tonight,

Maybe we're all that we needed.



Maybe we're perfectly not meant to be

Or more alike then were willing to see.

Maybe we're not meant to not disagree,

Maybe we're crazy baby.



If you could come clean about everything,

It would be easy for me

To be sorry.

If you could see all the possiblities,

We might not still be standing where we started.



Oh no,

Don't let me go for this,

Don't let me go for this.



I might be a fool,

But you might be one too,

Maybe we're all that we needed.

Two wrongs don't make a right,

But I don't care tonight,

Maybe we're all that we needed.

I don't care tonight,

Maybe we're all that we needed.

I don't care tonight,

Maybe we're all that we needed.
