Lyrics
More Than Their Share
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I give an inch and you take a mile and you tell me to jump and I just ask how
high
I've been over backwards to show you I care
And someone must always give more than their share
I say I'm sorry when the fault is not mine
And I take the blame for our fights all the time
I love you so much and it doesnt seem fair
That someone must always give more than their share
I know you well enough to know you would never admit you were wrong
And you know me well enough to know I give in cause my love is so strong
If I give an inch and you take a mile if you tell me to jump well I just ask
how high
I've been over backwards to show you I care
Cause someone must always give more than their share
Yes someone must always give more than their share
