Giving It Up For You Lyrics

Giving It Up For You lyrics

Though I'm young and cynical

It's not my only crime

I've been stealing all your cigarettes

To save another dime



And in case you haven't noticed

I just gave them all away



Tell me what do you think of me now?

That I've traded all my armor for a crown

Come on, what do you do with me now?

That I've taken down the mirror on the wall

And the sweet rain is ready to fall



I'm giving it up for you

I'm giving it up for you, yeah



Well, I take a lot of medicine

I don't really need

Well, I was drinking at eleven

Getting high at seventeen



So now I don't appreciate

The taste of expensive wine, no



Tell me what do you think of me now?

That I've traded all my armor for a crown

Come on, what do you do with me now?

That I've taken down the mirror on the wall

And the sweet rain is ready to fall



I'm giving it up for you



Take your aim like Artemis

And kill another dove

But when your heart becomes a hunter

You may wound your chance to love



Tell me what do you think of me now?

That I've traded all my armor for a crown

Come on, what do you do with me now?

That I've taken down the mirror on the wall

And the sweet rain is ready to fall



I'm giving it up for you

I'm giving it up for you, yeah

I'm giving it up for you

I'm giving it up for you



I'm giving it up
