Give You Away Lyrics

I know that life's full of give and take

And it's always better to give

But somehow it's different when your heart aches

You'll take all the love you can get

I remember the day when we brought you home

We knew we were blessed from above

We kissed you goodnight and said close your eyes

Soon those sweet dreams they'll come

Someday someone will take your heart away

And right then I will cry tears of joy

And as we walk down the aisle and you take his hand

Don't ask me to give you away

I'm thinking about beaches and walks in the rain

And how you cried when that boy didn't call

And how you're always giving when someone's in pain

And you don't ask for nothin' at all

Some flowers they blossom more slowly than most

Take your time, there's no rush with these things

You'll know when the right one is there at your door

And winter turns into spring

Someday someone will take your heart away

And right then I will cry tears of joy

But as we walk down the aisle and you take his hand

Don't ask me to give you away

Well I hope, my dear, that he makes you laugh

That smile will be his reward

That he honors and loves you and does the best that he can

And knows he's the luckiest boy

Now just one more thing that I want you to know

For when your time comes as a bride

If I'm still around or my own time has come

You know I'll be there by your side

Someday someone will take your heart away

And right then I will cry tears of joy

But as we walk down the aisle and you take his hand

Don't ask me to give you away

Don't ask me to give you away

When we walk down the aisle and you take his hand

Don't ask me to give you away

Don't ask me to give you away
