Give to Get a Day

I saw you standing there With a worry on your face Of the next move I'd make But that just wasn't the case You just had to walk away As I stood there before you Like the bailor of the courtroom Not the plaintiff on parade When I'm asked about that day I remember the breath you'd take And the rejection in your eyes But the projection didn't fade I don't blame you anymore For the mess we had made Like my father once told me You gotta give to get a day I think on those words now As if I were to invade All of your pretty space On a floor we didn't lay And I'll remember your face As the pretty one by the bay As we dreamt about our future And watched it all fade away As we dreamt about our future And watched it all fade away As we dreamt about our future And watched it all fade away
