Walter Egan: "Just the Wanting" Lyrics

Did you ever believe a dream was real

Like a magical surprise

So you live off what you feel

Just a glimpse of paradise

Then you wake and find it's gone

And all that's left you is the song

Just the wanting alone was worth it

Just the thrill and desire

Just the wanting alone was worth the fire

Just the wanting alone was worth it

Just the thrill and desire

Just the wanting alone...desire

I remember when I was seventeen

And my life had just begun

All I needed was a dream

And I always found me one

But the dream, it always fades

And the joy is in the change

Just the wanting alone was worth it

Just the thrill and desire

Just the wanting alone was worth the fire

Just the wanting alone was worth it

Just the thrill and desire

Just the wanting alone...desire

Just the wanting alone...desire
