Bread - Everything I Own 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

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

You taught me how to love
What it's of, what it's 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

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

  4. M.... M....

    David Gates is a first-rate songwriter.

  5. L.... K....

    Ever since 1972....a million years ago, I always thought this was about a love he ‘d lost, a woman who’d broken his heart, but he wanted in his life again. Not long ago, I watched David Gates say In an interview that he wrote it about his late father. Still a pretty song but kind of changed the dynamic for me.

    Do you know when the lead singer wrote this beautiful song for his father but the record company and management never wanted the word to get out told him it would be a love song about Lovers told him it would never sell if people thought he wrote it about his Father Look it up in Utube he tells us why he wrote it and I've always loved Bread

    I was a boy when the singing so g writer era was in full bloom. . I like the era because the songs were personal yet universal . This was my favorite song from Bread . It's always interesting looking back on music I liked as a child. As a child you don't know life so these songs are either catchy to your ears or not. Than life ones along and you realize it's joy and sorrow because that is the theme of the living. Still listening in 2019 I was just 8 when this came out but we did have a little record player and Bread was one we use to play alot .
