What I Wouldn'T Give
What I wouldn’t give to be the one to put those stars in those eyes.
What I wouldn’t give to end all goodbyes as our love dies.
What I wouldn’t give to take back your heart.
Saying all this is tarring me apart.
Were you even mine from the start?
What I wouldn’t give to end this pain.
What I wouldn’t give to take back the nights you spent with her that still drives me insane.
I’m not asking for a fight.
I’m asking for tonight.
What I wouldn’t give to burn a fire at the end of this candle.
What I wouldn’t give for a chance for our love to rekindle.
What I wouldn’t give to get back what we lost.
I didn’t know being blind would cost.
What I wouldn’t give to get you out of my mind.
What I wouldn’t give to go back and have a chance to find.
What I wouldn’t give to be part in part.
What I wouldn’t give to be sole in sole.
What I wouldn’t give to be one heart.
You are my other half.
That’s why this has to last.
Why are we losing us so fast?
What I wouldn’t give to go back and undo what I did wrong.
What I wouldn’t give to go back and take back a goodbye that seems so long.
Though the years I know when it comes to our love I lost my way back,
But what I wouldn’t give to take it all back.
