Lyrics
Give More Than You Take
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.
If you wanna keep a love young always show her that you care
Call her through the day to say you love her always thinking of her
Give her just a little more love than you take
If you sometimes seem to hurt her then you mustn't let love die
Take her head on your shoulder pet her say you're sorry to let her cry
Give her just a little more love than you take
Like the rain filling water that the sun takes from a lake
If you give more love there'll always be than much more to take
Just remember your time's coming when you'll need someone to lean on
So give love with a smile and she'll make it all worth while
Always by your side to give you more love than she takes
Like the rain filling water...
If you wanna keep a love young...
Call her through the day...
