[Verse 1] I never needed diamonds Or a house up on a hill Never needed some big promise That the world would stand still I just wanted Sunday mornings And a man who wanted me A place for all our dreams to land And room enough to breathe You wanted art upon the walls Your talent paying bills A place where you could chase your dreams And still come home to us And I could see the future In the smallest little things A warm light in the window And the sound of wedding rings [Chorus] I wanted to be Nicole Kane Wanted to hear that name out loud Wanted to stand beside you And say my promises with pride Not because I needed saving Not because I couldn't stand But because out of all the people I wanted you to be my man Nicole Kean It sounded like a place to land A name I wanted to grow into With my whole heart in your hands [Verse 2] I imagined us much older With your hair still just the same You'd be late for our anniversary And I'd love you anyway You'd be making awful jokes And I'd pretend they weren't that bad We'd have stories round the table About the crazy life we'd had And the kids would have their futures And we'd finally have some peace You could draw until the morning I could write whatever pleased me Never needed us to be perfect Just two people choosing right Even when the days got harder Even when we had to fight [Chorus] I wanted to be Nicole Kane Wanted to hear that name out loud Wanted to stand beside you And say my promises with pride I wasn't chasing some big wedding Or a fairy-tale routine I was looking for forever In the life we'd already seen [Bridge] Now I wonder if you knew What that name meant to me It wasn't just a last name It was who we hoped we'd be And I can miss that future Without losing who I am I can love the name I dreamed of And still remember mine [Final Chorus] I wanted to be Nicole Kane I won't pretend that wasn't true There was no one else beside me In the future that I drew But a name can't make a promise And a ring can't make you stay You have to choose each other In a thousand little ways [Outro] I wanted to be Nicole Kane And maybe part of me still does But I never wanted just your name I wanted all your love.
