Steve Hackett - Give It Away lyrics

A broken heart's not easy to mend Why must you break it again When you lose your prized possession Look around you're exception Give it away Your mind is all made up When you lose your first love You'll never feel that way No one can take her place When you lose your self expression It's just time to change direction Give it away When you start you're lovers and friends But when you part you're strangers again Now the time just pa**es slowly Time to live from yourself only Give it away You watch the years go by and she's no longer there Then one day you will find That you no longer care When you lose your prized possesion Look around and no exception Give it away When you lose your self expression It's just time to change direction There's no need for more protection Give it away
