Give It Away

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 Till You give it away" A father lived in silence Saw his son become a man There was a distance felt between them 'Cause he could not understand That love isn't love Till you give it away You gotta give it away As we live Moving side by side May we learn to give (May we learn to give) Learn to sacrifice We can entertain compassion For a world in need of care But the road of good intentions Doesn't lead to anywhere 'Cause love isn't love Till you give it away, yeah You gotta give it away As we live Moving side by side May we learn to give (May we learn to give) Learn to sacrifice 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 As we live Moving side by side (Moving side by side) May we learn to give (May, may, may we learn to give) Learn to sacrifice 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 As we live Moving side by side May we learn to give (May, may we learn to give) Learn to sacrifice You gotta give it away As we live (As we live) Moving side by side (Moving side, moving side by side) May we learn to give (May we, may we learn to give) Learn to sacrifice (Learn to sacrifice)
