Lyrics

You’re draining me baby, sucking the strength right out of me
You dangle your prize in front of me, conveniently out of reach
You try to steal my laughter, there’s days you succeed
But you can’t touch my character, too stubborn to know defeat.

Couldn’t you give just a little bit back to me?
Together we could move the mountains and move the sea
Yeah, you know it’s all I need, give a little back to me.

Dragging me onward, my passion burns deep down
Sell everything that I own, just to follow you around
I’ve given up my name, in a moment of ecstasy
Come tomorrow morning, you’re nowhere to be seen.

Couldn’t you give just a little bit back to me?
Together we could move the mountains and move the sea
Yeah, you know it’s all I need, give a little back to me.

Maybe someday, I’ll take a bus right out of town
You can tell all my friends, I won’t be coming ‘round.
Gonna ride on out to the country, I’ll finally be free
Looking over my shoulder, I’ll see you running after me.

Couldn’t you give just a little bit back to me?
Together we could move the mountains and move the sea
Yeah, you know it’s all I need, give a little back to me
Give a little back to me; Give a little back to me.
