Mariah Carey - I Only Wanted Lyrics

This is one of few songs that I actually enjoy from that album. Beautiful, so heartfelt,heartbreaking song, and beautiful, really emotional vocals.

Let's get this gem to #1 next. Lol

Ho sempre adorato mariah e questa è una delle canzoni che preferisco

Love it

Irmã das também lindas, After Tonight e My all.

J Q Todas são irmãs. rs

I only wanted the live sweet

I absolutely love this song!!!!

Mariah such a clever writer. I heard a bit of harmony from her former song " After Tonight" in this as well as "My All" so amazing. Only obsessed Mimi fans would hear and catch it. Where are my true Mariah Fans stand up!!!!

Taylor Harris these songs are actually trilogy

Such a touching song
Used to listen and cry to it after my breakup

The one and only mariah!! 💗💗

💗💗💗HERMOSA 💗💗💗

This song is the story of my life

What a beautiful song! SO UNDERRATED

Her tone on the Charmbracelet was so angelic! Plus her vocabulary is outstanding!! 💖

My predilet song of Charmabracelet , Im from Brazil , Im from Natal <3

Doesn't it ever stay
Must it always fade away
Couldn't love ever be
Something tangible and real
Farewell, fair weather friend
Abandonment returns to taunt me again
I only wanted you to stay
Linger and mean the words you said
Foolishly I romanticized
Someone was saving my life
For the first time
I only wanted you to be there when I
Opened up my eyes
I was caught in your masquerade
Wish I'd stayed beneath my veil
But it just seemed so easy to
Open up myself to you
Once more into the wind
The embers scatter
And the chill settles in
I only wanted you to stay
Linger and mean the words you said
Foolishly I romanticized
Someone was saving my life
For the first time
I only wanted you to be there when I
Opened up my eyes
Oh
I only wanted you to stay
Linger and mean the words you said
Foolishly I romanticized
Someone was saving my life
For the first time
I only wanted you to be
The one to get me through that night
I only wanted you
To be there when I
Opened up my eyes
Oh
Doesn't it ever stay?
I only wanted you to
Stay

thx 4 the lyrics

Thank you.

I'm in heaven right now! What a voice! Love this song!!!! Love Mariah

That high note at 3:01 was incredible!

Wow! Separuh Matiku Bercinta - Dayang Nurfaizah ! Malaysian version of I only wanted.

I don't like the songs she picked as singles in this era. This one would have been a better single choice althoug it's too similar to My all.

Leandro Cruz that's the point. "My All", "After Tonight" & "I Only Wanted" go together in telling a story.

The record company usually decides what's a single

True! "Charmbracelet" is such a masterpiece! "My Saving Grace" & "The One" definitely should’ve been singles!

the song her voice omg one word perfection🌸🌸🌸

i'm having goosebumps from the first time she started singing until the next minute.

I grew up with her song :) I still listen to this day! :)

My favorite song from the "Charmbracelet" album.
So beautiful ballad.

My favorite Mariah Carey song ever. Love this song, My All and After Tonight. All 3 sounds very similar.

Butterfly12 mines too i adore this song

@fix they are trilogies.

@vexx con I know

Her voice conveys so much emotion.

I always view her as very stiff on stage. But I can really2 feel her emotions when she sings latin songs. Love latin Mariah so much. Her voice fits these kind of music so much and her emotions was superb
