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 can't give you more than what I've got

I can't expect to give what I have not

I-I-I can only give ya lovin' 'till the sun goes down

And, until the leaves of summer turn to shades of brown

I try and I try

But baby, you know that I

Can only give you evra'thing

I can't argue with you to a-understand

'Cause afterall, I am just a man

A you-ooo-ooo are on my mind

When stars appear and shadows fall

And when ev'ra little flower close

And no birds call

I try and I try

But baby, you know that I

Can only give you evra'thing

(Instrumental)

I'll do anything you want me to do

'Cause I don't want to know there's life without you

Ooh, ooh, ooh,

Don't ever go and leave me in this world alone

I-I-I'd be like a little child if I was on my own

I try and I try

But baby you know that I

Can only give you evra'thing

Evra'thing, baby

A little bit of this, a little bit of that

And evra'thing

Ooh, ooh, ooh

FADES

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Whoa, ooh, ooh

Whoa, ooh, ooh

Yeah, yeah, yeah
