annrenee: Music
What Would I Give
(annrenee)
In the darkened corners of the days gone by
Glistening in the cobwebs, tears in my mind’s eye
I want to run it back again- until I can remember when
You could find it in your heart to forgive
What would I give
Wasn’t what you needed when you needed someone most
Not a rock of shelter, just the shadow of a ghost
And you railed against the things you lost-how could I fail to see the cost
Of the choices that I made, the things I did
What would I give
CHORUS: So I pray to all that’s holy, beg from all that’s good
To protect you now as I never could
And I’ll seek this benediction for as long as I live
If I could make it up to you-
what would I give
Don’t expect your blessing for the path I chose to take
You’re my judge and jury- you can burn me at the stake
But if you look into my eyes, I hope someday you’ll realize
Forever in my heart is where you live
What would I give
(Chorus & out…)
