BERNSTEIN, Charles

All the Whiskey in Heaven

Not for all the whiskey in heaven

Not for all the flies in Vermont

Not for all the tears in the basement

Not for a million trips to Mars

Not if you paid me in diamonds

Not if you paid me in pearls

Not if you gave me your pinky ring

Not if you gave me your curls

Not for all the fire in hell

Not for all the blue in the sky

Not for an empire of my own

Not even for peace of mind

No, never, I’ll never stop loving you

Not till my heart beats its last

And even then in my words and my songs

I will love you all over again.
