Give it Away - Michael W Smith
>From Change Your World -1992
She asked him for forever and a promise that would last
He said, "Babe you know I love you, but I can't commit to that."
She said, Love isn't love til you give it away."
A father lived in silence, saw his boy become a man
there was a distance felt between them cause he could not understand
that love isn't love until you give it away You gotta
give it away
CHORUS:
As we live, moving side by side
may we learnD/A] to give, learn to sacrifice
We can entertain compassion on a world in need of care
But the road of good intentions doesn't lead to anywhere
Cause love isn't love til you give it away, You gotta
give it away.
BRIDGE:
Love is like a river
Flowing down from the giver of life
We drink from the water and our thirst is no longer denied
You gotta give it away
There was a man who walked on water. He came to set the people free
He was the ultimate example of what love can truly be
Cause his love was his life and he gave it away,
You gotta give it away.
