Nothing We had nothing Nothing but the air That we were gasping for
Not much We hadn't much But we had many dreams And a list of what we lacked
Oh enough I could tell we had enough I carried my own children Upon my back
Everything Now I know that now We had everything though we did not know We had love
So now what I'm dreaming of Hey what I'm longing for Who's there to save me now
Soon it's all gone with the wind It's flying like a kite of paper in the storm Soon it's all gone with the wind It's flying like a kite of paper in the storm Soon it's all gone with the wind It's flying like a kite of paper in the storm
Nothing We had nothing But the roof had many holes And it was raining
Not much We hadn't much at all But at least we saw the stars During the starlit nights
Oh enough I swear we had enough A fireplace in the middle Where we gathered all of us
Everything I know I know that now We had everything though we did not know We had love
So now what I'm dreaming of Hey what I'm longing for Who's there to save me now
Soon it's all gone with the wind It's flying like a kite of paper in the storm Oh soon it's all gone with the wind It's flying like a kite of paper in the storm No, no, soon it's all gone with the wind It's flying like a kite of paper in the storm
We had nothing We had not much We had enough Please don't ever let us have too much...
