Carolyn Arends What I Wouldn't Give
Songwriters: Arends, Carolyn;Sacrifices never made, desperate prayers I left un-prayed
Forgiveness not asked for love not confessed
Compromises all refused, coat of armor not removed
Everything guarded till nothing was left
But the image of a face I can?t forget
The bitter, lasting taste of my regret
What I wouldn?t give to be younger and wiser?
What I wouldn?t give to be Yours once more?
What I wouldn?t give to be less of a miser?
And give You what I wouldn?t give before
All the lines I wouldn?t cross, battles won while love was lost
I built my fortress on blood, sweat and fears
Terrified you?d run away, I made sure you couldn?t stay
I packed all your bags, I cried all your tears
I locked the door behind You and I knew
I?d give anything to be with You
What I wouldn?t give to be younger and wiser?
What I wouldn?t give to be Yours once more?
What I wouldn?t give to be less of a miser?
And give You what I wouldn?t give before
My situation?s tragic
My condition is so sad
What I wouldn?t give You
Cost me all that I had?
What I wouldn?t give to be younger and wiser?
What I wouldn?t give to be Yours once more?
What I wouldn?t give to be less of a miser?
And give You what I wouldn?t give before
