All We Have To Give - Lyrics by Billy Squier


Lyrics

I see the world around me...i feel the joy and pain
I hear the sound of silence...and laughter in the rain
Now some things may control us...but some things we can do
Wherever there's a heart that's beatin' there's a place for me and you

When we give a little...we give all we have to give...give a little

Now we all got our problems...and some you can't ignore
But if we stand together we stand for somethin' more
With all we have to hope for...and all we have to give
Whenever it's your heart that's beatin' there's a chance for us to live

When we give a little...we give all we have to give...give a little

They say the days are gettin' short...and the nights are gettin' longer
The weak are gettin' weaker...and the strong keep gettin' stronger
On a street with no connections...everyone can use protection
They're stirrin' up the lies, they spin 'em round between me and you
They say there's nothin' you or i can ever really hope to do
But every man in every nation can hear the call of soul salvation

A hundred million faces...a hundred billion tears
No one can come between us to isolate our fears
With all we have to hope for...and all we have to give
Whenever it's your heart that's beatin'...there's a chance for us to live

For every day your heart beats...for every day the sun shines
With every breath our hearts meet...with every step our hopes fly
For every day your heart beats...whichever way your soul flies
With every breath our hearts meet...with every step our thoughts cry
