Ocean Colour Scene - If I Gave You My Heart

If I Gave You My Heart

I f I gave you my heart
Where would you be
Would it mean nothing
I f not for me
I f I gave you my eyes
What would they see
Would they see nothing
I f not for me
But I gave you my hand and my sign and my soul on the earth
And I gave up on truth when I heard about the worst
I lived out of love when I gave it away
And I sold off my soul when there is no one to pay
I f I gave you my hand
What would it write
Would it say nothing
Or say its alright
I f I gave you my arms
Would they hold you tight
First light of morning
Or bid you goodnight
And I gave you my strength and my worth and I gave you my gift
And I moved on the first and I left us to drift
And I reap from the soil and I build hopes from wood
I ts a new better life and we have two and should
And I gave you my dream of the world and we stood on the quay
And we sang to the wind in the whole darkening sea
And I feel my weight and I guard my soul
And I found my beliefs when I found my control
I gave you my hand and my soul on the earth
And I gave up on the truth when I heard about the worst
So I lived out of love when I gave it away
And I sold off my soul when there is no one to pay
