"Wanted You More" is a song recorded by American country music trio Lady Antebellum. It was released in May 2012 as the fourth single from their album Own the Night. The song was written by group members Hillary Scott, Charles Kelley, and Dave Haywood, along with Matt Billingslea (their original drummer), Dennis Edwards (their bass player), Jonathan Long (their keyboardist and band leader) and Jason Gambill (one of their electric guitar players), and it features lead vocals from both Scott and Kelley.
The song is about a relationship that is coming to an end, with the narrator realizing that her lover is not reciprocating the feelings of love. Charles Kelley and Hillary Scott said that they based the song around a melody that their touring band was improvising during a sound check.[1]
