Lyrics to Everything I've Got
There’s a fever that’s about to break
i’ve been markin’ down the days
the clock’s been tickin’
i’ve been countin’ every minute
till i see your face

and now you’re standing right in front of me
i’m exactly where i want to be
come a little closer, we both know
where this is gonna lead
gonna try to make it like we never said goodbye

let the rain swallow this ground
let the sun burn the night right down
nothing else in the world on my mind
but you and me taking our sweet time
so hold on, baby, ‘cuz ready or not
i’m gonna give you everything that i’ve got

you know it’s been way too long
time’s been draggin’ on
kiss me till i’m dizzy
show how much you missed me
while i was gone

i wanna breathe in this moment like it could be my last

let the rain swallow this ground
let the sun burn the night right down
nothing else in the world on my mind
but you and me taking our sweet time
so hold on, baby, ‘cuz ready or not
i’m gonna give you everything that i’ve got

oh, oh
and i ain’t gonna stop till you call for help
oh, oh
yeah, till i ain’t got nothin’ left
oh, oh
making up for lost time never felt so good

let the rain swallow this ground
let the sun burn the night right down
nothing else in the world on my mind
but you and me taking our sweet time
every second’s been a lifetime long
and anytime away from you is every shade of wrong
so hold on, baby, ‘cuz ready or not
i’m gonna give you everything that i’ve got
