What I Need (feat. Jonny Lang) Lyrics

I got a head full of dreams and time here to scheme
This ain't good, good
I'm thinking, you know, about what did and didn't go
Like it should, should

All of these expectations just mean my heart will be breaking
Oh, why can't I see?

You give me what I need
Even on my brightest day, even in a hurricane
You give me what I need
Even when there's way too much, even when I'm down to dust

I trouble with time but its will was not mine
There was no slowin' where it was going
The wishes I willed, all came back unfulfilled
I was praying without patience

All of these expectations just mean my heart will be breaking
Oh, why can't I see?

You give me what I need
Even on my brightest day, even in a hurricane
You give me what I need
Even when there's way too much, even when I'm down to dust

I keep calm, carry on, like nothing ever went wrong
That's what I'm gonna do, that's what I'm gonna do
Laugh it off, move along, get back where I belong
Live my life by leaning on you

Oh, lean on you, I'm gonna lean on you, yeah

You give me what I need
Even on my brightest day, even in a hurricane
You give me what I need
Even when there's way too much, even when I'm down to dust

You give me what I need
Even on my brightest day, even in a hurricane
You give me what I need
Oh, what I need, you give me what I need

Give me what I need
