Give It Away
Paul Brandt Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ready or not
Take your best shot cause here life comes
You use what you got, and you got it all when you got love
We had it and we store it up, and there never seems to be enough
This world is spinning so fast, ain't no slowing it down and

And there ain't a lot that lasts
But I think I found a way to make love stay,
You got to give it away.

Talk about time,
And its flown away before your done,
And money is fine, but one day its here and next day its gone,
So love is looking like a sure thing,
'cause the more you give the more you get
Oh this world is spinning so fast,
There ain't no slowing it down.

And there ain't a lot that lasts but I think
I found a way to make love stay,
Oh and someday everybody dies,
But not everybody really lives.
And when its my turn to say goodbye
I don't want nothing left to give.

This world is spinning so fast
Ain't no slowing it down, and there ain't a lot
That lasts but I think I found
Oh this world is spinning so fast,
There ain't no slowing it down,
And there ain't a lot that lasts
But I think I found away to make it stay,

You got to give it away.
You got to give it away.




You got to give it away.
You got to give it away.
