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 got nothing to show And the only thing I have left in the whole wide world is you
I gave it all I had every night for all these years Pouring out my soul till it was gone I spread myself so thin that I´m just barely hanging on But tonight I´m with you, you can carry me through; just love me ´Cause 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
I gave it all I had every night for all these years Pouring out my soul till it was gone I spread myself so thin that I´m just barely hanging on But tonight I´m with you, you can carry me through; just love me ´Cause the only thing I have left in the whole wide world is you
