Givers and Takers

I’m not yet quite ready for this love

I know I can face the easy days

But when the days between us begin to turn rough

I want to know if it’s tough love

Or together we fall still reqauinted


Some are givers, some are takers

Some feel real love, others love fakers

Oh I’m looking in the eye of a needle

With the vision of an eagle

Seeking your love inside


Givers and takers, I’m ready to give my all

But if you take it all, what will you give in return


The givers believe they own nothing

The takers believe they owe nothing

So tell me how high will be the price of love to you

Will it break your bank and not my heart

If your a giver as much as me

Take all of me or else just let me be


I’m not counting the amounts I want in return

Just that your gonna let this fire burn

If I have to go searching for wood

You know I won’t be gone for long

I’ll give you as much as your can carry


Givers and takers, I’m ready to give my all

But if you take it all, what will you give in return


The givers believe they own nothing

The takers believe they owe nothing

So tell me how high will be the price of love to you

Will it break your bank and not my heart

If your a giver as much as me

Take all of me or else just let me be


The givers believe they own nothing

The takers believe they owe nothing

So tell me how high will be the price of love to you

Will it break your bank and not my heart

If your a giver as much as me

Take all of me or else just let me be
