| It’s funny how it starts, just how it all begins.
|
| You get your sights on dreams, and man a thousand different things.
|
| You are on for yourself, you're chasing cool desire.
|
| You get addicted fast, but man you’re playin' with fire.
|
| Then there’s a day that comes to you.
|
| When you get all you want, but there’s a space inside that’s still as empty as
|
| it was.
|
| 'Till an angel comes your way and man she’s fallin fast.
|
| You know she’s so in need but she is to afraid to ask.
|
| So you hold on out your hands and catch her best you can.
|
| And in givin' love you feel a better man.
|
| And the gift is what you get by givin' more than you receive.
|
| And you’re learnin' fast that maybe this is how you’ll be happy.
|
| 'Cause in takin' everything you lost, the air you need to breath.
|
| But in givin' it away, you found the precious thing you seek.
|
| And it’s better by far to do what you do now.
|
| And leave the rest to love.
|
| Just be strong in who you are.
|
| Once you start on that road.
|
| You’re safe in the knowledge.
|
| That anyway you go.
|
| Will lead you home lead you home
|
| And the gift is what you get by givin' more than you receive.
|
| And you’re learnin' fast that maybe this is how you’ll be happy.
|
| 'Cause in takin' everything you lost, the air you need to breath.
|
| But in givin' it away, you found the precious thing you seek
|
| 2) So precious precious precious precious oh yeh So precious precious precious
|
| precious o o (you are) …
|
| And the gift is what you get by givin' more than you receive.
|
| And you’re learnin' fast that maybe this is how you’ll be happy.
|
| 'Cause in takin' everything you lost, the air you need to breath.
|
| But in givin' it away, you found the precious thing you seek. |
