All

All...
     that you are

All...
     that you know

All...
     that you see

All...
     is on loan

All...
     that is new
                    
has now grown old

to make way for all
new seed to be sown

All...
     that you love

All...
     that you hate

All...
     of the present

All...
     past mistakes

All...
     need forgiving

before it's to late

to make room for all
on lifes crowded highway

All...
     that it was

All...
     it now is

All...
     of it measured

All...
     sealed with a kiss

All...
     you ever needed

one ounce of bliss

what all you got
is all it now is
