A favourite of my mother's, now of my kids'.
Bread - Everything I Own
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Q1kB0R4Ijs
A firm favourite of many. Written after his Father died. Was in relation to how he felt.
"Everything I Own"
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 againMy first bread album was a birthday present when I was 17 from a guy I use to work with.
It is a wonderful expression of his love for his Father and how he missed him.
