All That I Can Ever Own
Neil Finn

Whenever I remember my days
As I grow old, I’m grateful
When I hold this child in my arms
Heaven knows I’m hopeful
And you look so deep in my eyes
And you know I’m faithful
Revelations on the ride home
That when love is in my heart
It’s all that I can ever own

I might push her away
If I don’t be careful
And my worries keep me awake
Every night I’m fearful
That the storm might cause her to stray
Or some slimy devil  
Revelations on the ride home
That when love is in my heart
It’s all that I can ever own

Sand castle shiver   
Taken by the river  
Into the great unknown
Send me to heaven
Love in the present
All I can ever own
Someone is waiting
Maybe a stranger
One day he’ll guide you home    

Let the child go a wandering
And following her heart
We all become a part of someone else

Love is in my heart
It’s all that I can ever own

There’s an awareness that you can’t really control the outcomes of what happens when you love someone. Throughout your life there’s an element of letting go of anything other than the love you feel for somebody.
