The Greatest Showman Song Lyrics

Never Enough By Loren Allred

[Jenny Lind]

I'm trying to hold my breath

Let it stay this way

Can't let this moment end

You set off a dream with me

Getting louder now

Can you hear it echoing?

Take my hand

Will you share this with me?

'Cause darling without you

All the shine of a thousand spotlights

All the stars we steal from the nightsky

Will never be enough

Never be enough

Towers of gold are still too little

These hands could hold the world but it'll

Never be enough

Never be enough

For me

Never, never

Never, never

Never, for me

For me

Never enough

Never enough

Never enough

For me

For me

For me

All the shine of a thousand spotlights

All the stars we steal from the nightsky

Will never be enough

Never be enough

Towers of gold are still too little

These hands could hold the world but it'll

Never be enough

Never be enough

For me

Never, never

Never, never

Never, for me

For me

Never enough

Never, never

Never enough

Never, never

Never enough

For me

For me

For me

For me

"Never Enough"

The Swedish opera singer Jenny Lind makes her American debut promoted by P.T. Barnum with a performance of this song.

The appearance of the song itself – an – in the film underscores some of the character arcs. It is appropriate for Barnum, who has thus far been unsatisfied his station in life – despite success with his circus, it's "never enough" for him. It also reflects Anne and Phillip's budding romance, which may not be enough to overcome their differences. The lyrics also reflect Jenny herself, who is lonely and wants companionship despite her fame and reputation as one of the greatest singers in Europe.
