deric ruttan - i saved everything lyrics
in a drawer there’s a key with an old wooden box
sometimes jesus and me, sit down and unlock another time
when you were mine
rose petals and a letter, a piece of baby’s breath
a single white feather you found the day we met
you said it came from an angel’s wings.
–chorus–
i saved everything that ever meant anything
precious moments in time, i kept them all alive
these pieces of the past take me back
to the greatest love i ever knew
i saved everthing but you.
in the early part of autumn you were slippin’ out of reach
i was running out of options
so i went to see the preacher and we prayed
lord, take her chains away.
and i never stopped believin’ right up til’ the end
i know god must have his reasons,
but nothin makes much sense without you here…
there’s only silver wings.
–chorus–
cause’ i saved everything, that ever meant anything
precious moments in time, i kept them all alive
these pieces of the past take me back
to the greatest love i ever knew
i saved everything but you.
…a single white feather i found the day you left
i knew it came from an angel’s wing.
