my treasure

johnny cash

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 a 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

but i set my sights much higher and i'd be sure that i had you

my treasure unmeasured unmeasured.
