Lyrics

You sheltered me from harm

You provided protection from danger or trouble for me

Kept me warm, kept me warm

You kept me emotionally comfortable and secure

You gave my life to me

You gave me my existence or made my life possible

Set me free, set me free

You allowed me to be independent or liberated me

The finest years I ever knew

The best years of my life

Were all the years I had with you

Those years were the ones spent with you


And I would give anything I own

I am willing to sacrifice anything I possess

I'd give up my life, my heart, my home

I would give up my life, emotions, and dwelling place

I would give everything I own

I am ready to give away everything I have

Just to have you back again

To regain your presence once more


You taught me how to love

You taught me how to experience affection

What it's of, what it's of

What love is composed of or about

You never said too much

You didn't verbalize excessively, yet you demonstrated through actions

But still you showed the way

But you still guided me

And I knew from watching you

By observing you, I learned


Nobody else could ever know

No one else can understand the part of me that can't move on

The part of me that can't let go

The aspect of myself that remains attached


And I would give anything I own

I'm prepared to forfeit anything I possess

I'd give up my life, my heart, my home

I'd relinquish my life, emotions, and dwelling place

I would give everything I own

I am willing to give away everything I have

Just to have you back again

To have you by my side once more


Is there someone you know

Is there someone you care about deeply

Your loving them so

You love them immensely

But taking them all for granted?

But perhaps you don't appreciate their presence fully

You may lose them one day

One day, you might lose them

Someone takes them away

Someone might take them away from you

And they don't hear the words you long to say

You might regret not expressing your feelings to them


I would give anything I own

I am ready to give up anything I possess

I'd give up my life, my heart, my home

I would sacrifice my life, emotions, and dwelling place

I would give everything I own

I am prepared to part with everything I have

Just to have you back again

To experience your presence again

Just to touch you once again

To feel your touch once more
