THE ENOUGH SONG

+ Show full styles

[Verse 1] I knew a man with seven watches, Still he said he had no time, Owned a room of golden trophies, Still complained he could not shine. He kept climbing every ladder, Never asked what roof was for, Till he reached the highest window And began to search for more. [Chorus] How much is enough, enough, enough? How high must the hill become? There is nothing wrong with reaching, But remember where you’re reaching from. Build your dream, but build your life, Make some music, make some time, Having more is not the problem— Losing “enough” can rob you blind. [Verse 2] I met a woman rich in laughter, Not in property or shares, She could make a feast from little And a home from folding chairs. She said, “Wealth is having options, Peace is knowing which to choose. You can own a thousand treasures And still fear what you might lose.” [Chorus] How much is enough, enough, enough? How high must the hill become? There is nothing wrong with reaching, But remember where you’re reaching from. Build your dream, but build your life, Make some music, make some time, Having more is not the problem— Losing “enough” can rob you blind. [Verse 3] I am not against ambition, I have plans I mean to chase, But I will not trade my people For a number or a place. Let achievement be a servant, Never let it be the king, Because success without connection Is an empty room that rings. [Bridge] Enough to eat, enough to share, Enough to know somebody cares, Enough to rest without regret, Enough to dream of better yet. Enough to laugh, enough to give, Enough to love the life you live— The richest answer may be tough: To want the world, but know enough. [Final Chorus] How much is enough, enough, enough? How high must the hill become? There is nothing wrong with reaching, But remember where you’re reaching from. Build your dream, but build your life, Make some music, make some time, Having more is not the problem— Losing “enough” can rob you blind. [Outro] Enough is not surrender. Enough is knowing what your victory means.
