Toad the Wet Sprocket - All I Want - is to feel this way, to be this close, to feel the same

Toad the Wet Sprocket - All I Want

This is one of those mellow, peaceful songs that were common during the 90's and made you feel relaxed and hopeful about tomorrow. Too bad tomorrow came at one moment and we don't hear songs like this one anymore. Back in 1992 this was their most successful song and it even managed to make it to the top 20 of the Billboard Hot 100 chart which really meant that you have what it takes to be a star. Now all you need to get there is a big marketing campaing, some good looks, a lot of makeup and autotune.

Lyrics:

nothing's so loud
as hearing when we lie
the truth is not kind
and you've said neither am i
but the air outside so soft is saying everything
everything

all i want is to feel this way
to be this close, to feel the same
all i want is to feel this way
the evening speaks, i feel it say...

nothing's so cold
as closing the heart when all we need
is to free the soul
but we wouldn't be that brave i know
and the air outside so soft, confessing everything
everything

and it won't matter now
whatever happens will be
though the air speaks of all we'll never be
it won't trouble me

and it feels so close
let it take me in
let it hold me so
i can feel it say...
