Song Description

Gorgeous narrative ballad about losing memory but holding on with love

Lyrics

All of me or nothing?
© 2008 Bruce Mills (ASCAP)

Time slipped away like a summer holiday -
Before we knew - it was September
Just faded memories - in faded photographs - like -
Sea shells on the golden sand

I don't ask for all or nothing -
Maybe something in between
Just a little piece of heaven
Like a touch or like a smile

There is so much to remember
All the little souvenirs
Gentle words so soft and tender
Like waves up on the shore

Chorus
I can't find my way back home again
Without your hand to lead me there
To the love we left so far behind -
To the promises we shared

We've got to find our way back home again
To the places we have been
Can you tell me where we're going now?
Can you tell - can you tell me - what you see?


When you tell me that you love me -
Is it only words you speak?
Or is your heart still burning bright for me
Is it all of you - or nothing?

Give me something to remember
Something I can hold and keep
For a lifetime and forever
All my days - and all my dreams

Chorus
I can't find my way back home again
Without your hand to lead me there
To our love - we left so far behind -
To the promises we shared

We've got to find that road back home again
To the places we have been
Can you tell me where we're going now?
Can you tell what you see?

I don't ask for all or nothing -
Maybe something in between
Just a little piece of heaven
Like a touch or a smile

Time slipped away like a summer holiday -
Before we knew - it was September
Just faded memories - in faded photographs - like -
Sea shells on the golden sand
