7possessions Lyrics - Singles - Stephen Leonard

if i had only seven possessions 

i'd want a golden ticket home 

for whenever i needed 

to be grounded by the roots that tell me 

all have is all i need 

to walk with you 

and i'd have all the lost photographs 

so i can see what i can't seem to remember now 

so i can laugh with you 

i'd want something strong to hold onto 

like a branch from a tree 

that both man and god planted for me 

if i live to ever say i do 

then i hope for a honest heart 

that beats a simple tune 

one that i can hum 

one that i can strum along to 

i'd have a slice of strawberry pie 

to indulge in 

to be free 

to give into a weakness that has seeped into my needs 

i'd have a coat 

for when breath is visible 

to keep me warm 

to keep me safe from wind and rain 

to cover you if your sleeves get torn away 

if i had only one more possession... 

:)
