|
Here's a tear, for a souvenir |
|
And a dream, that's torn at the seams |
|
Here's a promise you made to me |
|
Of the tomorrow I'll never see |
|
And then you're free to go |
|
But I can't give back the love |
|
I feel for you |
|
I'm gonna be stuck with it |
|
No matter what I do |
|
Take these arms that held you close |
|
I thought I was the one you needed the most |
|
Take these hands, they're no good to me |
|
That used to touch you so tenderly |
|
But I can't give back the love |
|
That's a part of me |
|
If you want just a little bit |
|
You have to take all of me |
|
Here's a ring |
|
That didn't mean a thing |
|
And the letters you wrote |
|
That gave my young heart hope |
|
Take the pillow where my dreams were made |
|
And the mind, where the thought of you stayed |
|
But baby, you should know |
|
That I can't give back the love |
|
I feel for you |
|
I'm gonna be stuck with it |
|
No matter what I do |
|
Take these eyes that once could see |
|
Now reflections of a misery |
|
The hapiness I thought would last |
|
Now a becoming just a thing of the past |
|
But I can't give back the love |
|
That's a part of me |
|
If you want just a little bit |
|
You have to take all of me |
|
No, I can't give back |
|
No, I feel for you |
|
Oh, I'm gonna be stuck |
|
No matter what I do |
|
'Cause it'll grow 'till the world |
|
Don't go 'round no more |
|
But I can't give back the love |
|
I feel for you |
|
I'm gonna be stuck with it |
|
No matter what I do |
|
But I can't give back the love |
|
I feel for you |
|
I'm gonna be stuck with it |
|
No matter what I do |
|
But I can't give back the love |
|
I feel for you |
|
I'm gonna be stuck with it |
|
No matter what I do |
