Given It All

I have given it all

I have taken all the punches

Back into the corner I crawl

Now the dice have tumbled

How the mightly stumble and fall

I have given it all

Left to dry in the rain

Washed away by love's indifference

Broken down, twisted and lame

Hold me for a moment

Help me find myself once again

Take me in from the rain

Shelter me from this pain

We wander from the straight and narrow and we

Make the bed of nails that we lie upon

We only need the warmth of love when it has gone

Bring me in from the cold

At the end of every rainbow

I'd have it all, I was told

But in time, as colours faded

Promises I traded for gold

Bring me in from the cold

And let me live with my soul

I'm searching for the strength inside of me

But the road is long when you've lost your way

I reach out for a guiding light, it fades to grey

I have given it all

There've been times I may have hurt you

Times I should have given you more

But through it all just know I've loved you

Think before you walk out the door

I've got my back to the wall

I have given it all

I have given it all
