Jonathan Hayes - My Everything

Don't you take my bed
I need a place to rest my head
If I am gonna change the world
Teach all the kids to tuck and curl
I need a place to sleep at night

Oh don't you take my knees
Cuz I need them for walking please
And I'm sure you can understand
How you could really change a man
By taking both his knees away

No don't take my dogs away
Cuz I need them to sit and stay
If they don't stay then nor will I
Cuz I am just a stubborn guy
Don't give me no direction

Well
What would I have to bring
If you took my Everything
To show I'm part of the world
Cuz I alone am not enough
I alone am not enough

Oh don't take my family
Cuz I need them to comfort me
In times when I can't understand
How I'm supposed to be a man
With people dying every day

No don't you take my girl
Cuz I need her to be my world
Cuz love is all I really have
The rest is all just on my tab
But I won't ever pay it off

No don't take my guitar
Without it I won't get that far
At least that's what I tell myself
I won't be on that dusty shelf
Always high and no one sees me

Well
What would I have to bring
If you took my everything
To show I'm part of the world
Cuz I alone am not enough
I alone am not enough

No don't take my phone from me
Just how am I supposed to see
What Adam did on his day off
If he was playing frisbee golf
I hear he likes to play sometimes

No don't take my friends away
Cuz they help me get through the day
I know they don't mean much to me but it's
All in my philosophy
Without them I might crumble

Well
What would I have to bring
If you took my everything
To show I'm part of the world
Cuz I alone am not enough
I alone am not enough
I alone am not enough
No I alone am not enough
