Lyrics
it costs too much - it takes too long
it?s everything - it?s all day long
a walk in the park - a spin on the wheel
it?s in your head - it?s only real
give it away, give it away
under wraps - dragged in by the cat
sunk like a treasure - was brimming with pleasure
now it hurts like pain - wet like rain
something you did when you were a kid
give it away, give it away
give it away, give it away, give it away
inside your pocket the watch on the chain
the hand on the dial that raises the cane
never runs down - never gets lost
never gets loose - never gets off
give it away, give it away
i feel so unsure, i can?t hold it no more
give it away, give it away, give it away
you blow my mind - you test my nerve
you test my love around every curve
and i can?t find you enough
you?re just so hard - you play so rough
give it away, give it away
a slow burn - a little stress
i don?t regret it, i guess
but fear and the road will keep me going
keep me going till i ain?t knowing
give it away
i cannot hold it up, i never know when enough is enough
give it away, give it away, give it away
give it away, give it away, give it away
don?t you want me baby, don?t you need me baby
don?t you read me baby, anymore
you?re my deconstruction baby,
one hundred seventeen and forty-four
give it away, give it away, give it away
give it away, give it away, give it away
