Lyrics

V1
You mean a whole lot to me
But I won?t let you be everything
The hold you wanna have on me
It?s like a gun to my head
It?s so burdening

V2
I can?t give all of me to you
It?s just not what I do unconditionally
I need some for myself
In case I need self-help
Understandably

CHORUS
I?ll give you as much as I can spare
As much as I can bear to lose
So in case you have a sudden change of mind
And on reflection come to find
That it?s just not working out
That?s okay
?Cos I?ve seen that scene before

V3
You mean a whole lot to me but
I won?t let you be the only thing
I won?t give my heart and soul
Not whole
It?s too burdening

CHORUS
I?ll give you as much as I can spare
As much as I can bear to lose
I?ll give you as much as I can find
As much as I?ve a mind to use
So in case you have a sudden change of mind
And on reflection come to find
That it?s just not working out
That?s okay
?Cos I?ve seen that scene before

BRIDGE
You like long walks upon the beach
But those pebbles hurt my feet
I lost my shoes with my naivety
So long ago
So long ago

V4
You mean a whole lot to me but
But I won?t let you be everything
I won?t give my heart and soul
Not whole
Not all

CHORUS
I?ll give you as much as I can spare
As much as I can bear to lose
I?ll give you as much as I can find
As much as I?ve a mind to use
So in case you have a sudden change of mind
And on reflection come to find
That it?s just not working out
That?s okay
?Cos I?ve seen that scene before
