Lyrics Polly Paulusma

Polly Paulusma

Give It Back

Can I keep my head

When all around me are losing theirs?

Can I keep my secrets close?

Can I hold my course in this tiny vessel steady?

Will I reach the farthest coast?

It's rolling away from me

As far as the eye can see

But while this journey's long, it's joyful

'cause you are here with me

I've been living for tomorrow

Forgot to live today

This sweet life is only borrowed

Got to give it back some day

can I feed this beast

With everything I've got and more?

Who will suffer if I don't?

Who's the puppetmaster

Pulling me towards the shore?

Do I want to cut the ropes?

It's rolling away from me

As far as the eye can see

But while this journey's long, it's joyful

'cause you are here with me

I've been living for tomorrow

Forgot to live today

This sweet life is only borrowed

Got to give it back some day

it's rolling away from me

I'm sailing so fast it's hard to see

The light that shines from you

Is all I really need, it's all I need

I've been living for tomorrow

Forgot to live today

This sweet life is only borrowed

Got to tgive it back some day
