If you promised me the gold from the sky
Each morning when the sun is high
That wouldn't be enough to see me through
If you promised me the silver lining
>From every cloud in Heaven shining
It wouldn't be enough, 'cause all I want is you
All I want is you and your love
And your arms to hold me tight
I don't want any riches
They're cold when you are alone at night
Don't offer me a pot of gold
At the end of a painted rainbow
It wouldn't be enough, 'cause all I want is you
And don't offer me a song from a bluebird
'Cause I don't want a song from a bluebird
It wouldn't be enough, 'cause all I want is you
