[Verse 1] I give the good I have away Before I know what I can spare Then every hand that reaches out Pulls at a different thread in me [Pre-Chorus] I try to hold the turning wheel As if my grip could set its course [Chorus] Give what I can, let the rest move on I can't command where the current runs Give what I can, keep my feet in time Some things are yours; some won't be mine [Verse 2] Your plans arrive, mine change their minds A dozen voices crowd the day I learn the weight of saying yes And what a careful no can save [Bridge] I can't choose every wave I can choose what I give [Chorus] Give what I can, let the rest move on I can't command where the current runs Give what I can, keep my feet in time Some things are yours; some won't be mine [Outro] Some things are yours Some won't be mine
