I gave you a child
and you didn't want it
That's the most
that I have to give
I gave you a house
and you didn't haunt it
Now where am I
supposed to live
I gave you a tree
and you did not
embrace it
I gave you a nightmare
and you didn't
chase it
I'd give you a dream
and you'd only
wake from it
Now I'll never go
to sleep again
I'd give you a treasure
and you'd only
take from it
Look at the hole
where jewelry had been
Baby oh baby
why must you
escape from it
This love that we once
called our friend
Hoo-ooo-ooo
Hoo-ooo-ooo
Hoo-ooo hoo-ooo
I gave you my body
and you had aplenty
I gave you ten lives
and you wasted twenty
Now I'm standing empty
helpless and bare
Without a morsel left
of me to give
And you you had vanished
into the air
The air in which
I must live
