Before you take another step there's something you should know About the years ahead and how they'll be You'll be living in a world where roses hardly ever grow Cause all I have to offer you is me There'll be no mansions waiting on the hill with crystal chandeliers And there'll be no fancy clothes for you to wear Everything I have is standing here in front of you to see All I have to offer you is me [ steel ] Sweetheart I'll give you all my love in every way I can But make sure that's what you want while you're still free The only gold I have for you is in this wedding band Cause all I have to offer you is me There'll be no mansion waiting on the hill... All I have to offer you is me
