To Have It All - Alexander S. Bermange

[00:02.457]I let them see this outward show
[00:07.625]And yet in me deep down I know
[00:15.880]They gave me everything that anyone could wish for
[00:24.638]Believed in nothing but the best
[00:30.631]But I could never give as freely
[00:38.133]I just gave up resume the quest
[00:44.133]They so far more in me than I could ever give them
[00:51.384]More than they should have seen
[00:57.883]The hopes I let grow
[01:00.877]I swiftly let go
[01:04.126]As though they never been
[01:10.382]And it’s only natural when accuse to do the same
[01:17.383]If you’re just not big enough to freely take the blame
[01:26.705]
[01:26.705]To have it all
[01:30.965]Was all I ever spare a thought for
[01:35.714]To have it all
[01:37.979]Was all I mattered all I fought for
[01:42.468]But here I now
[01:44.713]All that I have the pain of knowing
[01:47.728]The distance simply kept on growing
[01:50.971]My routes not got me where I planned on going
[01:55.719]I never knew
[01:57.723]What damage dreams I tend to believing
[02:01.963]Or carry through
[02:04.227]All I had talked about achieving
[02:08.219]With every change of heart
[02:11.440]I pull a chance apart
[02:14.704]And up back at the start I lose it all
[02:20.448]Money, what can its magic be money
[02:23.950]What’s made me sicked so manicly
[02:26.691]Would it at last signal my success
[02:29.207]Could it and wants make a brother out shiny less
[02:32.202]How can I tell what it’s value would be
[02:35.204]How to know life would be better for me
[02:38.442]Might every hang-up stay wanting me any way
[02:41.701]Now I see everything money could never bring
[02:47.334]
[02:47.334]How to put a use for I’ve been learning
[02:53.845]Can money now be not for making but for earning
[03:00.844]I’ll prove my worth not through the figures I’ll be chasing
[03:06.100]But through the friends who I’ll be facing
[03:09.347]And feel deserving of the trust they’re placing
[03:14.331]There has to be
[03:16.346]A route to happiness who doubt it
[03:19.834]But let me see
[03:22.337]The route hold happiness who ought it
[03:26.350]I felt the real cost of all I’ve learned and lost
[03:33.343]The bridges burned and crossed those I let fall
[03:39.099]When I at last confessed I’m reaching happiness
[03:46.590]I’ll want no more or less I’ll have it all
