YOU CAN TAKE EVERY THING I HAVE
YOU CAN TAKE EVERY THING I HAVE
You can take my heart
You can take my smile away
Take the love I give
Even the pain that you left me with
But you cant take my soul
Cause Im reachin for the ski
Like a skiscraper
Im reachin high
Even though you took it all
I will survive
This lost love of mine
Youve taken back
You can take these fears
Of woe
I dont need them any more
You can have these tears
Of rain that have fallen
From these eyes of mine
You can take this loneliness
Even take the love
That you gave me
But you cant take my soul
Cause I just want let you
Take me down
Ive been there too many times before
I know the ropes
And Im
Reachin for the ski
This time around
Like a ski scraper
No more fallin down
You can take all that I have
But I want let you
Take my soul
I will rise
Yea I will rise again
Cause I have
Fallen for the last time
And I want let you
Take my soul
You can have these
Ole photos
That we once shared
You can take back
All the love letters that you gave
Take it all back
But I want
No I want let you
Take my soul
Cause I am
Reachin for the ski
Like a skiscraper
And I am
Keepin all thats left of me
In tack
Cause I want let you
Take my soul
