What I'd Give Up

(album: Phoenix - 2012)

Woke up in a hotel
Three hours of sleep last night
Only thing real to me is a thirteen-hour drive
I lost my convictions
I have risked my life
I've seen the face of God through miles of black ice

Oh, I just wanted you to know
What I'd give up to give myself to you
Oh, I just wanted you to know
What I'd give up to give myself to you

I had my foundations
But I threw them away
Only thing real to me was moving, the rest was fake
But I've got new direction
I feel winds of change
Still I've got my good reasons to stay the same

Oh, I just wanted you to know
What I'd give up to give myself to you
Oh, I just wanted you to know
What I'd give up to give myself to you

No I don't need it anymore
The hotel floor is the stage the lights the road
All I want to do is build a home
Because you've got my heart and my soul

Oh, I just wanted you to know
What I'd give up to give myself to you
Oh, I just wanted you to know
What I'd give up to give myself to you
What I'd give up to give myself to you
What I'd give up to give myself to you
