i'd give my heart

if you'd give your attention

but when i look

there's just an open trench (and baby)



i can't stand to see you, girl

showing off your silver party dress

no, you can't come over now

the house ain't neat

my room's a mess



i'd give my heart

to just be in contention

but i sold it off

at the baseball card convention



i can't stand to see you, girl

rubbing motor oil on all your joints

no, i ain't no straight A wiz

but i could learn

that's not the point (i'll plot my points)



i'd give my heart

if i had one for giving

i'd give my heart

your lips could keep me living

i'd give my heart (i'd give my heart)

and always be forgiving

i'd give my heart (i'd give my heart)

if i had one for giving
