Lyrics You Give it All Away - Dar Williams

You Give it All Away

I see what you see
And I hope the world is watching
Or they’re gonna love
The way you say the things you do
They don’t know what’s in store
They’ve never seen the likes of this before
And oh, you’re gonna give it all away
I know how it feels when the day will give you nothing
But then you see the golden spark that’s floating on the wind
The line becomes the verse, becomes the golden trees, the golden birds
And oh, you’re gonna give it all away
Whoa-whoa, whoa-whoa
You give it all away
Yeah, you give it all away
Whoa-whoa, whoa-whoa
You give it all away
Yeah, you give it all away
Hey there, lucky kid
I see that thing you did
You pulled without a doubt
When everyone was waiting
That yesterday
You turned around and now they say
Oh, what have you done lately?
Oh, you give it all away
You’re not alone
When you say it’s going fast now
The silver hope kaleidoscope
Is spinning us away
But find the means and find the ends
Find a reason, just pretend
Find a way to send the light you send
Just like salvation might depend
Upon the things you do
My lovely friend, I know
You’re gonna give it all away
Oh well, you’re gonna give it all away
Whoa-whoa, whoa-whoa
You give it all away
Yeah, you give it all away
Whoa-whoa, whoa-whoa
You give it all away
Yeah, you give it all away
