Given Myself To Love
I’ve given myself to flights of fancy
To see what’s around the next bend
I’ve given myself to things that are broken
To put them together again
I’ve given up hope and I’ve given my best
It all depends on the day
I’ve given up so many things that I wanted
And still the sun rises each day
Chorus
Some measure life by their losses and gains
For them, there is never enough
But I measure life by the hearts I have known
For I’ve given myself to love
I’ve given the money I had my pocket
To someone in obvious need
I’ve given myself to the kindness of strangers
And I’ve given thanks for good deeds
I’ve given solace and I’ve given comfort
I’ve given a hand to a friend
I’ve given myself to the things I believe
Though sometimes I don’t know to what end
Some people say that they have no regrets
Life’s just a roll of the dice
But I say if you live life paying attention
You see that each choice has a price
I’ve given some people more than they bargained
And others still cause for concern
I’ve given myself to the fire of passion
And I have been willingly burned
Just when it seems that the story is over
And all that remains is goodbye
There is one thing of which you can be certain
I’ll always give love one more try
Yes I measure life by the hearts I have known
For I’ve given myself to love
