Treasures

(Bruce Markow)

(Chorus) All your treasures are inside
and those goodies that you hide
all come bubbling to the surface
as you live a life of purpose
with your treasures from inside

Well, I’ve done a whale of worrying and burned a ton of time
Do you think I was getting closer
to the preaching of the teachers who were reaching out to me?
Well I still must tell you, “No, sir”
I was growing weary
I was going blind
Though I got another handout, wasn’t ready yet to stand out
with my treasures from inside

(Chorus)
So you want a mound of moolah, got to have a pile of cash
I won’t say it’s all in vain now
But if Wall Street went on tumbling and it all turned into ash
I could see you’d be in pain now
Ooh, you’re such a sweetheart!
Got to let you know
When you find the gold within you then whatever comes you’ll win
You’ll feel your treasures from inside

(Chorus)
Did your mama and your papa and your teachers say to you
that to love yourself’s conceited?
If they told you and you told yourself it just may be the source
of the times you feel defeated
Please know you are exquisite
and you’ve got it all
And the pressure that you’re feeling are the treasures in there squealing,
“Let us out from deep inside!”

(Chorus)
On purple mountains’ majesty, above the fruited plain
there is beauty all around you
It reflects your inner beauty and as sure as you were born
when you know that you’ll have found you
Everyone’s your lover
Everything’s your love
So don’t be a party pooper know that you’re already super
with your treasures from inside

(Chorus) (Chorus)
...treasures from inside...
Everything’s your love
