	Story Behind the Song This song came out of the weird ending of "La Promesa". At first I was going to make it a remake of Van Morrison's (with Them) "I Can Only Give You Everything", but then, as usual, the lyrics took on a less personal twist. Lyrics It's a mystery The way the world can feel just like a cold night wind. But it's bliss to me To image everything without the shadows in. Well you talk it all in black & white However both or neither may be right We're only given everything Only everything It amuses me That some have come so far and others far to go. But it's news to me To gather up so much and never let it flow. Well they say the simple things are free, Yet do we understand what we can see? We're only given everything Only everything You - have you seen the world when all the shadows fall? I can only think about it if I don't think at all. Well the boat we're on has taken flight And to check if we can steer it right We're only given everything Only everything Only everything, though nothing is real (Choose wisely what you use) Everything, though nothing is real (Use wisely what you choose) Everything, though nothing is real As I look around It seems that we just talk as if we don't know why. And the books abound But most are grounded here below the faded sky. Well I think that John had made the call That I am he as you and we is all We're only given everything Only everything You - and I are given everything I - and you are given everything We're only given everything We are only given everything We're only given everything Everything Everything Everything Everything etc...
