Give It Back - Polly Paulusma

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 puppet master

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 give it back some day
