Berry John I Never Lost You lyrics

If I had nickel
For every nickel I`ve had
I`d be rich now
But they Tempt and they tickle
They trickle right out of my hands
Like love somehow
I think of the heartache, the pain,
and the cost
The friends and the fortunes I`ve gained
and I`ve lost

But I never lost you
No, I never lost you
I don`t know how I`ve managed to hold onto
Something so true
But I never lost you

Some things were stolen
Others were simply misplaced
And unrecovered
Like undying loyalty
Conviction and trust and faith
In another
I just keep letting it go `til it`s gone
`Til all I have left is the one who held on

but I never lost you
No, I never lost you
Lost everything else, I even lost myself
A time or two
But I never lost you

But I never lost you
No, I never lost you
I don`t know how I`ve managed to hold onto
Something so true
But I never lost you
