Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I will learn to live before I die
Will learn to love and learn to try
And not to give it all away
[Verse 2]
She may be the one that’s meant for me
Or for the man that I used to be
‘Till I gave it all away
[Verse 3]
Why I laid my heart down on the floor?
I showed you love, you wanted more, more, more
But I gave it all away (Cry, cry, cry)
(Cry, cry)
[Verse 4]
You taught me to see the bitter truth
About yourself but about me too
I was stupid over you
What could I do?
[Verse 5]
Why I lay my heart down on the floor?
I showed you love, you wanted more, more, more
But I gave it all away (Cry, cry, cry)
(Cry, cry)
[Verse 6]
Why I lay my heart down on the floor?
I showed you love, you wanted more, more, more
But I gave it all away (Cry, cry, cry)
(Cry, cry)
[Verse 7]
Some people wait a lifetime for a chance like this
I've waited enough
Baby, no, I won’t let you go
I’m sick of tears and bitter fears
[Verse 8]
Why I lay my heart down on the floor?
I showed you love, you wanted more, more, more
But I gave it all away (Cry, cry, cry)
(Cry, cry)
[Verse 9]
Why I lay my heart down on the floor?
I showed you love, you wanted more, more, more
But I gave it all away (Cry, cry, cry)
(Cry, cry)
[Verse 10]
There's nothing left to take (Cry, cry, cry)
(Cry, cry)
I gave it all away
