V5.5

[Intro] Yeah… Mi give yuh more than mi shoulda give… Time, loyalty, patience… everything. But love cyaan work when one heart a beat fi two. Yuh know… [Verse 1] Mi change nuff ways just fi ease yuh mind, Put mi pride aside, leave mi feelings behind. Every time yuh fall, a mi pull yuh through, But anytime mi fall, weh di hell was you? Mi learn yuh silence, mi study yuh pain, Stand up beside yuh through sunshine and rain. Nuff wicked words mi forgive and forget, Still yuh never see di tears weh mi never show yet. When yuh need reassurance, mi give yuh dat, When mi need di same, yuh turn yuh back. Yuh love fi receive but yuh struggle fi give, Mi nearly lose miself just fi mek dis thing live. [Pre-Chorus] Mi never ask fi diamond, Mi never ask fi gold. Mi only waan di same love weh mi give from mi soul. [Chorus] Mi give, give, give till mi empty inside, While yuh take, take, take like a dat love provide. Mi bend, mi break, still mi stay by yuh side, Now mi done sacrifice fi keep something alive. Mi never ask yuh fi change who yuh be, Just give back likkle a weh yuh get from me. 'Cause love cyaan survive when a one heart fight, Mi carry we both while yuh sleep every night. [Verse 2] How many time mi swallow weh mi waan seh? How many night mi cry then smile next day? Mi lower mi voice just fi keep di peace, While every harsh word from yuh never cease. Mi search inna miself like a me did wrong, Wonder if mi too hard, wonder if mi too strong. Till mi look inna di mirror and finally see, Mi never ask too much — yuh give too little to me. Love nah just "don't leave" when mi reach di door, Love give mi reasons fi stay some more. Yuh cyaan demand loyalty, patience and trust, Then when a fi yuh turn, seh effort too much. [Bridge] And maybe dat a di saddest part… Mi woulda still fight fi we. If mi ever see even half a weh mi give yuh coming back to me. But mi learn… Yuh can love somebody bad, and still choose fi walk away. 'Cause even di strongest heart get tired one day. [Final Chorus] Mi give, give, give till mi empty inside, While yuh take, take, take like a dat love provide. Mi bend, mi break, still mi stay by yuh side, But mi nah sacrifice again just fi keep love alive. Mi never ask yuh fi change who yuh be, Just give back likkle a weh yuh get from me. Now mi heart finally learn weh mi mind always know: If mi haffi beg fi di love… Den a time fi let go. [Outro] Keep every chance weh mi give yuh, Every night mi stay, every tear mi hide. Mi nah ask fi none a dem back. Mi just a tek back mi peace… Mi strength… Mi pride. Maybe one day yuh ago understand: Mi never ask fi too much. Mi just ask di wrong person.
