Ocean Colour Scene Mechanical Wonder If I Gave You My Heart



if i gave you my heart
Where would you be
Would it mean nothing
If not for me

If i gave you my eyes
What would they see
Would they see nothing
If not for me

But i gave you my hand and my sign and my soul on the earth
And i gave up on truth when i heard about the words
I lived out of love when i gave it away
And i sold off my soul when there's no one to pay

If i gave you my hand
What would it write
Would it say nothing
Or say it's alright

If i gave you my arms
Would they hold you tight
First blood (?) in morning
Or bid you goodnight

And i gave you my strength and my worth and i gave you my gift
And i moved on the first and i left us to drift
And i reap from the soil and i build hopes from wood
It's a new better life and we have to ensure

And i gave you my dream of the world and you stole the key
You sang to the wind in the whole ??? sea
And i feel my weight and i guard my soul
And i found my beliefs when i found my control
I gave you my hand and my soul on the earth
And i gave up on the truth when i heard about the words
So i lived out of love when i gave it away
And i sold off my soul when there's no one to pay

---------------------------------------------------------
If i gave you my heart where would you be,
Would it mean nothing if not for me?
If i gave you my eyes what would they see,
Would they see nothing if not for me?

But i gave you my hand and my sign,
And my soul on the earth,
And i gave up on truth,
When i heard about the worst

So i lived out of love
When i gave it away
And i sold off my soul
When there was no-one to pay

If i gave you my hand what would it write
Would it say nothing or say it's alright
If i gave you my arms would they hold you tight
First light of morning or bid you goodnight

And i gave you my strength and my worth
And i gave you my gift
And i moved on the first
And i left us to drift

And i'll reap from the soil
And i'll build home from wood
It's a new better life
And we have 2 and should

And i gave you my dream of the world
And we stood on the quay
And we sang to the wind
And the whole darkening sea

And i feel my weight
And i guard my soul
And i found my beliefs
When i found my control

I gave you my hand
And my soul on the earth
And i gave up on truth
When i heard about the worst

So i lived out of love
When i gave it away
And i sold off my soul
When there was no-one to pay
