Bonnie Prince Billy - I Gave You lyrics

rate me

I gave you a child, and you didnt want it

Thats the most that I have to give.

I gave you a house, and you didnt haunt it

Now where am I supposed to live.

I gave you a tree and you did not embrace it

I gave you a nightmare and you didnt chase it

I'd give you a dream and you'd only wake from it

Now I'll never go to sleep again.

I'd give you a treasure and you'd only take from it

Look at the hole where jewlery had been

Baby oh baby

Why must you espcape from it

This love that we once called our friend.

(hoo ooo, ooo. hoo ooo ooo...)

I gave you my body and you ate aplenty

I gave you ten lives and you wasted twenty.

Now I'm standing empty, helpless and bare, without a morsel left of me to give

And you, you have vanished, into the air

The air in which I must live
