The Only Treasure

In the search for something lasting
Something timeless as the sun
In the quiet of the late night, asking
When the lonely day is done
What have we got?
Something in a memory
Something in a feeling now
A hope, a little prayer?
What have we got?
Can it be a mystery
Can it be we’re seeing
How the pain is more than we can bear
Without each other, a little bit of time
And each other, the roses and the wine
And our love forever, love is the only treasure
When the final chord is ringing
And the band is halfway home
We’re so tired, we’re almost tired of singing
Couldn’t face the night alone
What have we got?
Something in a memory
Something in a feeling now
A hope, a little prayer?
What have we got?
Can it be a mystery
Can it be we’re seeing
How the pain is more than we can bear
Without each other, a little bit of time
And each other, the roses and the wine
And our love forever, love is the only treasure
