My Treasure (demo) Songtext
von Johnny Cash

I saved a lot of money, my treasures were unto...
Wait out,I supposed to say fortune there

I saved a lot of money, my fortune was untold
And like a fool I idealized my silver and my gold
My earthly treasure′s mounted but when I counted through
I realized the treasure I had overlooked was you


My treasure unmeasured
But forsaken of the treasures that come from above
My treasure unmeasured
But it don't hold a heart of the one that I love

If I had my life before me, if I could see it all
I′d stake my claim on things that are secured against downfall
I'd work for earthly treasures like any man would do
But I'd set my sights much higher and I′d be sure that I had you

My treasure (my treasure) unmeasured (unmeasured)
But forsaken of the treasures that come from above
My treasure unmeasured
But it don′t hold a heart of the one that I love
