I Gave Too Much
I Gave Too Much I gave to you my heart of hearts I gave to you a promise of love I took from you all that you gave And granted you no room to shove. I sent to you a moonlight kiss I sent to you a rambling rose I took from you all that you were And granted you no more than prose. I threw at you a resounding no I threw at you a begging please I took from you all that I could And granted you no time to cease. I gave to you a loving embrace I gave to you a humble home I took from you all that you gave And granted you no more than a show. I sent to you a warm,familiar touch I sent to you those things I could I took from you all that you wanted And granted you no more than I should. raw || truth |
