  • Back when all my little goals seemed so important
    Every pot of gold feeling full of distortion
    Heaven was a place still in space, not in motion
    But soon

    I got you
    I got everything
    I've got you
    I don't need nothing
    More than you
    I got everything
    I've got you

    We went walking through the hills
    Tryin' to pretend that we both know
    Maybe if we save up
    We could build a little home
    But then the hell storm came and yelled
    "You need to let go, you've got no control"
    No

    I got you
    I got everything
    I've got you
    I don't need nothing
    More than you
    I got everything
    I've got you

    This weight's too much alone
    Some days I can't hold it at all
    You take it on for me
    When tomorrow's too much
    I'll carry it all, I got you

    And when tomorrow's too much
    I'll carry it all, I got you

    I got you
    I got everything
    I've got you
    I don't need nothing
    More than you
    I got everything
    I've got you Writer/s: Jack Hody Johnson
