Lyrics
ONE SURE THING
(Copyright 2004 by Roger Ebacher, BMI)
It comes to life I take my chances
I throw it all up in the air
I do my best to beat the odds
but after that I just don't care
I've never bowed before a dollar
never thought it made much sense
you squeeze it 'til makes you holler
such an empty recompense
But our love's the one thing
I know to be true
And my life is empty and cold
Without you
So matter what kind of shape
this world's in
Our love's the one sure thing
