Lyrics Reba McEntire

Reba McEntire

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

R: 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

Couldn't 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

R:
