|
Me and Billy were a couple of kids |
|
Nobody knew about the things that we did |
|
Sharing our toys and riding our bikes |
|
We thought it would last for the rest of our lives |
|
But we gave it all up |
|
We gave it all up |
|
We gave it all up for school |
|
Then my family had to move out of town |
|
Made some new friends and started hangin' around |
|
Started stealing like the rest of the guys |
|
My friend got caught, I saw the fear in his eyes |
|
So I gave it all up |
|
I gave it all up |
|
I gave it all up for love |
|
She was eighteen and I topped her by one |
|
She said she'd heard about the bad things I'd done |
|
But she loved me and she just didn't care |
|
But one night she needed me and I wasn't there |
|
So she gave me right up |
|
(gave me right up) |
|
She gave me right up |
|
(gave me right up) |
|
She gave me right up for love |
|
As I look back and wonder |
|
Have I wasted my time? |
|
Will I ever learn the meaning of life? |
|
Will I learn it in time? |
|
So I sit here with a couple of beers |
|
Wondering how I've lasted all of these years |
|
You're beside me and it's feeling so right |
|
How I'd like to that you for the rest of my life |
|
'Cause I gave it all up |
|
(gave it all up) |
|
I gave it all up |
|
(gave it all up) |
|
I gave it all up for you |
|
Gave it all up |
|
I gave it all up |
|
I gave it all up for you |
|
(All for you, gave it all up for you) |
|
I gave it all up for you |
|
(All for you, gave it all up for you) |
|
So I gave it all up for you |
|
(All for you, gave it all up for you) |
|
Gave it all up for you |
|
(All for you, gave it all up for you) |
|
So I gave it all up for you |
|
(All for you, gave it all up for you) |
