All I Need

Jim Cuddy

Take me down to the riverside
Wash me up from this dusty ride
I'll pitch my tent in a field nearby
When I see you all my spirit starts to fly

Ah the moment comes
Somebody jumps somebody waits too long
It might never come again
Once I saw myself as someone dying to be freed
But you have led me here and that's all I need

Rolling across this graceful land
Phone calls home won't understand
Waving flags don't mean that much
Not like the thrill you get from a stranger's touch

All the world you held
The way you see yourself
You know that you're bound to change
You might never be the same

When I look outside
I see myself in the fear and greed
But you have led me here
And that's all I need

Northern girls with smiles so bright
Wander through my dreams tonight
Whispered words and timeless days
A face in the crowd we'll never fade away

All the hurt we take
The cruel mistakes
That leave you wondering why
Fall away as time goes by

Once I was a man that I no longer want to be
You have led me here and that's all I need
