The Only Thing I Have Left

(Clay Blaker)



Some people say I'm one of those guys

The blessings of life over looked

Sometimes I feel like the tattered, torn pages

Of some old paperback book.

All the places I've played and the money I made,

I've still have nothin' to show.

And the only thing I have left

In the whole wide world is you.



You put your whole life into something you love,

But you never get that one big break

That'll take you out of the backstreet bar

And put you on center stage

But a million tears and million beers

Have just about washed me up.

And the only thing that I have left

In the whole wide world is you.



Chorus:

I gave it all I had every night for all these years,

Pourin' out my soul 'til it was gone.

I spread myself so thin that I'm just barely hangin' on.

But tonight I'm with you, you can carry me through;

Just l o v e me.

'Cause the only thing that I have left

In the whole wide world is you.
