Is This All There Is Lyrics - Nanci Griffith

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
