You Give It All Away by Dar Williams Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I see what you see and I hope the world is watching
Oh they're gonna love the way you say the things you do
They don't know what's in store
They've never seen the likes of this before
And oh, you're gonna give it all away
[Verse 2]
I know how it feels when the day will give you nothing
But then you see the golden spark that's floating on the wind
The line becomes the verse, becomes
The golden trees, the golden birds
And oh, you're gonna give it all away
[Chorus]
Whoa, whoa
You give it all away
Yeah, you give it all away
Whoa, whoa
You give it all away
Yeah, you give it all away
[Bridge]
Hey there, lucky kid
I see that thing you did
You pulled it out without a doubt and
Everyone was waiting
That was yesterday
You turn around
And now they say "Oh, what have you done lately?"
Oh, you give it all away
[Verse 3]
You're not alone when you say it's going fast now
The silver hope kaleidoscope is spinning us away
But find the means and find the ends
Find a reason, just pretend
Find a way to send the light you send
Just like salvation might depend upon
The things you do, my lovely friend
And oh, you're gonna give it all away
Oh well, you're gonna give it all away
[Chorus]
Whoa, whoa
You give it all away
Yeah, you give it all away
Whoa, whoa
You give it all away
Yeah, you give it all away
I see what you see and I hope the world is watching
Oh they're gonna love the way you say the things you do
They don't know what's in store
They've never seen the likes of this before
And oh, you're gonna give it all away
[Verse 2]
I know how it feels when the day will give you nothing
But then you see the golden spark that's floating on the wind
The line becomes the verse, becomes
The golden trees, the golden birds
And oh, you're gonna give it all away
[Chorus]
Whoa, whoa
You give it all away
Yeah, you give it all away
Whoa, whoa
You give it all away
Yeah, you give it all away
[Bridge]
Hey there, lucky kid
I see that thing you did
You pulled it out without a doubt and
Everyone was waiting
That was yesterday
You turn around
And now they say "Oh, what have you done lately?"
Oh, you give it all away
[Verse 3]
You're not alone when you say it's going fast now
The silver hope kaleidoscope is spinning us away
But find the means and find the ends
Find a reason, just pretend
Find a way to send the light you send
Just like salvation might depend upon
The things you do, my lovely friend
And oh, you're gonna give it all away
Oh well, you're gonna give it all away
[Chorus]
Whoa, whoa
You give it all away
Yeah, you give it all away
Whoa, whoa
You give it all away
Yeah, you give it all away
