All I've Got
Lucy Rose Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Trying too hard to make a smile to notice
Being the one
Since you thought that you weren't mine

Even when I feel like I've lost my way
It would only last today
Till I know that I am yours
Because all I have is everything
I'm giving to you
And all I've got is you
It's nothing but the truth
All I've got is you

And you say just one small word
And I'll change my mind
Sometime it's not so easy to find

All the words are all mixed in my head
Trying too hard to make some sense
When I know deep down you know

All I have is everything
I'm giving to you
And all I've got is you
It's nothing but the truth
All I've got is you

So you take me by the hand
Take me places I don't know
So you take me by the hand
Take me places I don't know
And you
So you take me by the hand
And you
You take me places I don't know

Because all I have is everything
I'm giving to you
And all I've got is you

Cause all I have is everything
I'm giving to you
And all I've got is you
It's nothing but the truth
All I've got is you




Yeah, it's nothing but the truth
All I've got is you
