REBA MCENTIRE LYRICS - Everything I'll Ever Own

"Everything I'll Ever Own"



Funny you can hold it in your hand

And never cause you're afraid to play

And you can feel your dreams

Softly slipping through your fingers

Till they're so far away



Sitting there surrounded

By your many life's possessions

Feeling so much more than all the load

You realized you've learned one more

Of living's many lessons

Love's worth more than all you'll ever own



What I'd give if you were here beside me

We could spend forever here alone

Oh what I'd give what would I give

Just that moment

Just everything I'll ever own



Funny when I really had it all

I never knew

Cause I just couldn't see

The wealth I hoped to find

Couldnt even hold a candle

To the love you gave to me



I've taken love for granted

And I've taken love for pleasure

Never taking time to understand

Now I know that loving you

Has been my greatest treasure

And I let it slip right through my hands



What I'd give if you were here beside me

We could spend forever here alone

Oh what I'd give what would I give

Just that moment

Just everything I'll ever own
