All That I've Got
Rebecca Ferguson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I almost fell
I almost gave you everything under your spell
You almost mattered
You almost won
You held my fears and weakness [?]
But you're leaving with nothing
I'll carry on, I'll carry on
I'll carry on, I can
Hope you enjoyed it
But you're leaving with nothing
Nothing, nothing
This war has started
Rivers parted
But I'm gonna face my fears
Give it all that I've got
I'll give it all that I've got
Let the healing start
This war has started
Rivers parted
But I'm gonna cry no tears
Give it all that I've got
I'll give it all that I've got
Let the healing start
I almost stumbled
When you shot me down
You almost got the best of me and stole my crown
The glass was shattered
As it hit the ground
This endeavor enough for you, it's over now
Took what you wanted
But you're leaving with nothing
Nothing, nothing
This war has started
Rivers parted
But I'm gonna face my fears
Give it all that I've got
I'll give it all that I've got
Let the healing start
This war has started
Rivers parted
But I'm gonna cry no tears
Give it all that I've got
I'll give it all that I've got
Let the healing start
This war has started
Rivers parted
But I'm gonna face my fears
Give it all that I've got
I'll give it all that I've got
Let the healing start
This war has started
Rivers parted
But I'm gonna cry no tears
Give it all that I've got
I'll give it all that I've got
Let the healing start
I almost crumbled
I almost fell
I almost gave you everything but you've failed
