My Treasure Lyrics

Johnny Cash My Treasure Lyrics

I saved a lot of money my fortune was untold
And like a fool I idealized my silver and my gold
My earthly treasure's mounted but when I counted through
I realized the treasure I had overlooked was you
My treasure unmeasured
But forsaken of the treasures that come from above
My treasure unmeasured
But it don't hold the heart of the one that I love
If I had my life before me if I could see it all
I'd stake my claim on things that are secured against downfall
I'd work for earthly treasures like any man would do
And I'd set my sights much higher and I'd be sure that I had you
My treasure unmeasured
But forsaken of the treasures that come from above
My treasure unmeasured
But it don't hold the heart of the one that I love
