(johnny mcrae, bob morrison) 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 Chorus: 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 Repeat chorus
