If I Gave You My Heart

if i gave you my heart

Where would you be

Would it mean nothing

If not for me



If i gave you my eyes

What would they see

Would they see nothing

If not for me



But i gave you my hand and my sign and my soul on the earth

And i gave up on truth when i heard about the words

I lived out of love when i gave it away

And i sold off my soul when there's no one to pay



If i gave you my hand

What would it write

Would it say nothing

Or say it's alright



If i gave you my arms

Would they hold you tight

First blood (?) in morning

Or bid you goodnight



And i gave you my strength and my worth and i gave you my gift

And i moved on the first and i left us to drift

And i reap from the soil and i build hopes from wood

It's a new better life and we have to ensure



And i gave you my dream of the world and you stole the key

You sang to the wind in the whole ??? sea

And i feel my weight and i guard my soul

And i found my beliefs when i found my control

I gave you my hand and my soul on the earth

And i gave up on the truth when i heard about the words

So i lived out of love when i gave it away

And i sold off my soul when there's no one to pay

---------------------------------------------------------

If i gave you my heart where would you be,

Would it mean nothing if not for me?

If i gave you my eyes what would they see,

Would they see nothing if not for me?



But i gave you my hand and my sign,

And my soul on the earth,

And i gave up on truth,

When i heard about the worst



So i lived out of love

When i gave it away

And i sold off my soul

When there was no-one to pay



If i gave you my hand what would it write

Would it say nothing or say it's alright

If i gave you my arms would they hold you tight

First light of morning or bid you goodnight



And i gave you my strength and my worth

And i gave you my gift

And i moved on the first

And i left us to drift



And i'll reap from the soil

And i'll build home from wood

It's a new better life

And we have 2 and should



And i gave you my dream of the world

And we stood on the quay

And we sang to the wind

And the whole darkening sea



And i feel my weight

And i guard my soul

And i found my beliefs

When i found my control



I gave you my hand

And my soul on the earth

And i gave up on truth

When i heard about the worst



So i lived out of love

When i gave it away

And i sold off my soul

When there was no-one to pay
