All I Need Is Everything

About All I Need Is Everything

"All I Need Is Everything" was the first single off the album Knife by Scottish new wave band Aztec Camera. The single was released in September 1984 and reached number 34 on the UK Singles Chart, remaining on the chart for six weeks. The single version is two minutes shorter than the album version, which has an extended fadeout. According to a 1984 interview with Roddy Frame, the song was written in March 1984 while he was touring the United States. Frame called it an "unusual choice for a single, because unlike our previous singles (and most pop singles) it doesn't have a recurrent chorus at all. " The song's music video was in light rotation on MTV in autumn 1984. The unusual B-side of the single, a downbeat acoustic cover of "Jump" by Van Halen, drew positive attention. more »

Tears, just like the jewels 
Adorn their corporate crown,
Weigh on me worthless and I
Shake them down and leave now,
And have no royal things.

You, would consecrate the ground,
I paced in pain,
And though those pavements
Caught your sorrow stains.
They fall from me and I say,
Maybe don't fall for anything
That says it's never gonna
Give you everything.

I wish myself into your arms
To know that all I need is everything.

The size of the sea, and the sun in my eyes
And the line in my head,
Yearning for more, only for more.
These days are as bright as the days I have seen
In the wildest of dreams,
Yearning for more, only for more.

I wish myself into your arms
To know that all I need is everything.

Hold back the night, I am tired of my sight
That won't see anymore,
More than today, threatening to stay.

Hold back the night, I am tired of my sight
That won't see anymore,
"Show me you care," is "Show me the door."
