Analysis of You Were Always Everything To Me



You gave me love and hope to carry on
When I was lost as any fool could see
You are the one that keeps me hang'n on
And you were always everything to me

You are a shining unfamiliar star
You are a legend on the silver screen
Because I know, how wonderful you are
And you were always everything to me
And you were always everything to me

You are the sun that chased away the rain
You are a beacon on a stormy sea
You took away my loneliness and pain
And you were always everything to me

You are a shining unfamiliar star
You are a legend on the silver screen
Because I know, how wonderful you are
And you were always everything to me
And you were always everything to me
