Gilbert O'Sullivan I Can Give You lyrics

There are diamonds in this world for a lady
If I had the money, you'd never have enough
You don't have to understand me when I tell you
There is only one thing I can give you, love

He may ask to take you with him every day
And then give you presents
You've only ever dreamed of
Though I'd take you walking with me anyway
There is only one thing I can give you, love

What's important to me
Is not the good times we'll have
But the bad times that end up so badly for you

And so you see
What I want Is not the earth to move
What on earth's it prove

But a love that will make me
A love that will take me for good

And I don't know why soldiers shoot to kill
And I don't know why at ease I get so ill
And I don't give a damn, unless of course I do

So if you want to go with him just remember
What I say to you in spite of how I feel
Though he'll give you things
You've only ever dreamed of

There is only one thing I can give you, love
Yes, there is only one thing I can give you, love, love
