Lyrics The Everly Brothers

The Everly Brothers

Give Me a Future

Oh-oh-oh-oh, say you'll be mine

Give me future

All I have is the past that a-didn't last

That a-ruins my chances with you

The years ahead hold nothing but the thought

That maybe I won't have you

Nothin' can compare to the loneliness

That forces me to plead with you

Oh-oh-oh-oh, say you'll be mine

Give me a future

Your arms to hold me tight

That's what I need

You lips, to kiss goodnight

And try to please

Your eyes, to see the love

For which I reach

Please say the words that make you mine

For all I have is the past that a-didn't last

That a-ruins my chances with you

The years ahead hold nothing but the thought

That maybe I won't have you

Nothin' can compare to the loneliness

That forces me to plead with you

Oh-oh-oh-oh, say you'll be mine

Give me a future
