Everything I own - Bread (1972) (subtitled)

Although this song is frequently interpreted as a romantic love song, Gates actually wrote the song as a tribute to his father when he died.

Embora a música é freqüentemente interpretada como uma canção de amor, Gates  a escreveu como uma homenagem a seu pai, quando ele morreu. O título é "Tudo o que tenho".




(Lyrics)

You sheltered me from harm.
Kept me warm, kept me warm
You gave my life to me
Set me free, Set me free
The finest years I ever knew
were all the years I had with you

I would give anything I own,
Give up me life, my heart, my home.
I would give everything I own,
just to have you back again.

You taught me how to love,
What its of, what its of.
You never said too much,
but still you showed the way,
and I knew from watching you.
Nobody else could ever know
the part of me that can't let go.

I would give anything I own,
Give up me life, my heart, my home.
I would give everything I own
Just to have you back again.

Is there someone you know,
you're loving them so,
but taking them all for granted.
You may lose them one day,
someone takes them away,
and they don't hear the words you long to say

I would give anything I own,
Give up me life, my heart, my home.
I would give everything I own
Just to have you back again,
Just to touch you once again.
