Himawari -- Okui-Masami YOUR EVERYTHING --Keith Urban Below The first time I looked in your eyes I knew that I would do anything for you The first time you touched my face I felt what I never felt with anyone else I wanna give back what you've given to me & I wanna witness all of your dreams Now that you've shown me who I really am I wanna be more than just your man Chorus: I wanna be the wind that fills your sails & be the hand that lifts your veil be the moon that moves your tide the sun comin up in your eyes be the wheel that never rusts be the spark that lights you up all that you've been dreaming of & more so much more I wanna be your everything When you wake up I'll be the first thing you see & when it gets dark you can reach out to me I'll cherish your words & I'll finish your thoughts & I'll be your compass baby when you get lost Repeat Chorus I'll be the wheel that never rusts be the spark that lights you up all that you've been dreaming of & more so much more I wanna be your everything I wanna be your everything I wanna be your everything
