"All I Want Is You" is the fourth and final single from Carly Simon's 13th studio album Coming Around Again (1987). The song was co-written by Simon, Andy Goldmark, and frequent collaborator Jacob Brackman.

The song is one of Simon's biggest Adult contemporary hits, and has been included on multiple compilations of her work, such as the three-disc box set Clouds in My Coffee (1995), the UK import The Very Best of Carly Simon: Nobody Does It Better (1998), the two-disc retrospective Anthology (2002), the single-disc Reflections: Carly Simon's Greatest Hits (2004), and Sony Music's Playlist: The Very Best of Carly Simon (2014). It is also featured in Simon's 1987 HBO concert special Live from Martha's Vineyard, and the accompanying Greatest Hits Live (1988).

"All I Want Is You" peaked at No. 54 on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming Simon's 22nd entry on this chart, where it spent nine weeks. It was an even greater success on the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart, where it peaked at No. 7, and charted for five months. It ranked No. 46 on the Adult Contemporary year-end chart for 1988.
