All I Have
Lo-Pro Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I lie awake and hear you breathing
I can't believe it's time to go
The day has come and now I'm leaving
I'm leaving a place that I call home

I wish that things could be different
And none of this would ever change
I never thought that I would need them
But now these memories are all I have

Will you remember who I am?
Should I return quite not the same?
Will you hold on to what we used to be
Until I return to you again?

I wish that things could be different
And none of this would ever change
I never thought that I would need them
But now these memories are all I have

Yeah
Yeah

I wish that things could be different
And none of this would ever change




I never thought that I would need them
But now these memories are all I have
