I Got Everything - Mary McBride

I got diamonds in my hand from a quarry upstate

Billboard out the window never seems to fade

Catwalk floating high above the steam

Friends who ain t afraid to tell me what they mean

I got everything / I got everything

I got everything, everything but you

Kids with finger steeples giggle on the stoop

Summer double dutch, spinning hula hoops

Diner on the corner where they know my name

A strong cup of coffee on an ice cold day

Looking at the world, eyes on a tilt

It all came down, everything we built

This time it s over, I m empty and blue

I got everything but you

On the corner after midnight praying for rain

Message on that napkin did a number on my brain

Storefront crystal reader with a toothless grin

Says hold your head high, don t give in
