Nanci Griffith Is This All There Is? lyrics

I have traveled far to be sitting here with you
And I will leave this place alone
That's a sad and simple truth

So little time and so much to say
And I'll be none the wiser
When I leave you here today

Is this all there is
I wanted so much more
The gold in those hills
The silver of the mores

And now that I'm here
Looking you head on
To the treasure that I left behind
And all I'll ever miss

Oh, the blame for losing love is blind
Is this all there is

It always stops me cold everytime I hear your name
An' the friends that we had shared
Know I'll never love the same

I still hear your voice, echo through my days
Yet it never breaks my stride
We would always end this way

Is this all there is
I wanted so much more
The gold in those hills

The silver of the mores

And now that I'm here
Looking you head on
To the treasure that I left behind
And all I'll ever miss

Oh, the blame for losing love is blind
Is this all there is

We were really something
Holding hands and walkin'
Now, no amount of talkin'
Could lead this love a place to go

Is this all there is
I wanted so much more
The gold in those hills
The silver of the mores

Now that I'm here
Looking you head on
To the treasure that I left behind
And all I'll ever miss

Oh, the blame for losing love is blind
Is this all there is
The blame for losing love is blind
Is this all there is
