Lyrics
Give Yourself Away
Justin St. Denis 2006
Why whisper when you feel like shouting
So much in life is left unsaid.
I could write a book with all I'm seeing
I thought it might be easier
If I just told you myself.
It seems we've lost our way
And now you're gone astray,
You find love where you give it
You've got to give yourself away,
Give it all away,
Give yourself away.
We could go walking
And I could explain this.
We could sit right down
And share a few drinks.
The truth is easy
If we can only face it,
And some things in life
Can be solved with a kiss
And I'll say this,
We can find oursleves again,
As long as you believe,
You find love where you give it,
You have to give it all away,
Give yourself away
Give it all away,
And do it today
Now don't start counting your returns,
Take the time to say thank you,
Today's the day I give it all back to you and you and you...
Don't whisper just go ahead and shout it
So much in life left unsaid
I could write a book,
And I'm sure you could too my friend,
I thought it might be easier
If we just made love instead.
And we can find ourselves again,
Chorus
You've gotta give your self away,
Find love where you give it,
Give yourself away.
