Lyrics
YOU GAVE ME EVERYTHING
and as your brown hair
turns to grey
I'd say
you've never looked more
beautiful to me
and should my body ache
We can take a walk
we can talk about
our storied past
and how time moves
too fast
now that we're older
and nowadays the winter's seem
much colder
doesn't matter much
if we can touch
and now the kids
have moved away
I say
come and sit beside me
for a while
and let me hold your hand
until you see
that you and me
have never had
a reason to be sad
or to feel lonely
we've been lucky
and now that it's only
the two of us again
do you remember when
we used to lie in bed
when love was new
dreaming of the day
when all our dreams
would come true
now after all these years
I?say to you
you gave me everything
I?ever wanted
you gave me everything
you gave me everything
I?ever wanted
you gave me everything
