  • MICK JAGGER LYRICS

    "God Gave My Everything"

    You can see it in a clear blue sky
    You can see it in a woman's eyes
    You can hear it in your baby's cries
    You can hear it in your lover's sighs
    You can touch it in a grain of sand
    Yeah hold it right there
    In the palm of your hand
    Feel it 'round you everyday
    And hear what I've got to say

    God gave me everything I want
    Come on
    I'll give it all to you
    God gave me everything I want
    Come on
    I'll give it all to you

    I saw it in the midnight sun
    And I feel it in the race I won
    And I hear it in the windy storm
    And I feel it in the icy dawn
    And I smell it the wine I taste
    And I see it in my father's face
    And I hear it in a symphony
    And I feel it in the love
    You show for me

    Yeah
    God gave me everything I want
    Oh come on
    I'll give it all to you
    God gave me everything I want

    Come on
    I'll give it all to you
    God gave me everything I want
    I can't stop can't stop
    I'm still looking now
    God gave me everything I want
    Oh come on
    I'll give it all to you

    Crazy you said
    It's all in your head

  • Luna Loud from Royal Woods, MichiganKiller Tune! To everyone who thought Mick was a Satanist or even "Lucifer Himself", just because he wrote a song called "Sympathy For The Devil", I request you listen to this song.
  • John from New YorkJagger has always been spiritual
  • Vince from Sunderland UkThis is a very spiritual song, it reminds me of the Gospel of Thomas, god is in everything, he can be found in a grain of sand, or a baby's cry, even the clear blue sky. He is singing that god provides everything we see , hear, touch, feel and smell. I never realised Mick Jagger had a spiritual side.
  • Annabeth from Kutztown, PaZak, it's about how a guy has everything he needs, and he's willing to give it all to this girl he loves. Is that helpful?
