A broken heart's not easy to mend 
Why must you break it again 
When you lose your prize possession 
Look around you're no exception 

Give it away 

Your mind is all made up 
When you lose your first love 
You'll never feel that way 
No-one can take her place 

When you lose your self-expression 
It's just time to change direction 

Give it away 

When you start you're lovers and friends 
But when you part you're strangers again 
Now the time just passes slowly 
Time to live for yourself only 

Give it away 

You watch the years go by 
And she's no longer there 
Then one day you will find 
That you no longer care 

When you lose your prize possession 
Look around you're no exception 

Give it away 

When you lose your self-expression 
It's just time to change direction 
There's no need for more protection 

Give it away
