What you give, you get back
As long as I can think I've been
Running to be free
There's not a place that could have been too far
Had nothing but a bag of dreams
And this old guitar
A couple of songs to play for you an me
There's so much love inside of me
That wants to be released
I can't help it so I give it all away
What you give you get it back
So take my love just because it's all I have
Take my heart take my soul
I just never want it back
As long as I've been living
I've had music in my veins
I can't go on without it anymore
My suitcase is a wanderer
That takes me I believe
For a walk right across your heart
There's so much love inside of you
That wants to be released
And all you gotta do is let it go
What you give you get back
So take my love just because it's all I have
Take my heart take my soul
I just never want it back
Cause the love you give, is the love you'll get
There's so much love inside of me
That wants to be released
I can't help it so I gave it all away
What you give you get back
So take my love just because it's all I have
What you give you get back
So take my love just because it's all I have
Take my heart take my soul
I just never want it back
Cause your love, your love is all I have
All I have
Love is all we have
All I have
