|
She asked him for forever |
|
And a promise that would last |
|
He said, "Babe, you know I love you |
|
But I can't commit to that" |
|
She said, "Love isn't love |
|
Till You give it away" |
|
A father lived in silence |
|
Saw his son become a man |
|
There was a distance felt between them |
|
'Cause he could not understand |
|
That love isn't love |
|
Till you give it away |
|
You gotta give it away |
|
As we live |
|
Moving side by side |
|
May we learn to give |
|
(May we learn to give) |
|
Learn to sacrifice |
|
We can entertain compassion |
|
For a world in need of care |
|
But the road of good intentions |
|
Doesn't lead to anywhere |
|
'Cause love isn't love |
|
Till you give it away, yeah |
|
You gotta give it away |
|
As we live |
|
Moving side by side |
|
May we learn to give |
|
(May we learn to give) |
|
Learn to sacrifice |
|
Love is like a river |
|
Flowing down from the Giver of life |
|
We drink from the water |
|
And our thirst is no longer denied |
|
You gotta give it away |
|
As we live |
|
Moving side by side |
|
(Moving side by side) |
|
May we learn to give |
|
(May, may, may we learn to give) |
|
Learn to sacrifice |
|
There was a man who walked on water |
|
He came to set the people free |
|
He was the ultimate example |
|
Of what love can truly be |
|
'Cause His love was His life |
|
And He gave it away |
|
You gotta give it away |
|
As we live |
|
Moving side by side |
|
May we learn to give |
|
(May, may we learn to give) |
|
Learn to sacrifice |
|
You gotta give it away |
|
As we live |
|
(As we live) |
|
Moving side by side |
|
(Moving side, moving side by side) |
|
May we learn to give |
|
(May we, may we learn to give) |
|
Learn to sacrifice |
|
(Learn to sacrifice) |
