I Can't Give Back the Love I Feel for You Lyrics

Here's a tear, for a souvenir
And a dream, that's torn at the seams
Here's a promise you made to me
Of the tomorrow I'll never see
And then you're free to goBut I can't give back the love
I feel for you
I'm gonna be stuck with it
No matter what I doTake these arms that held you close
I thought I was the one you needed the most
Take these hands, they're no good to me
That used to touch you so tenderlyBut I can't give back the love
That's a part of me
If you want just a little bit
You have to take all of meHere's a ring
That didn't mean a thing
And the letters you wrote
That gave my young heart hope
Take the pillow where my dreams were made

And the mind, where the thought of you stayed
But baby, you should knowThat I can't give back the love
I feel for you
I'm gonna be stuck with it
No matter what I doTake these eyes that once could see
Now reflections of a misery
The happiness I thought would last
Now a becoming just a thing of the pastBut I can't give back the love
That's a part of me
If you want just a little bit
You have to take all of meNo, I can't give back
No, I feel for you
Oh, I'm gonna be stuck
No matter what I do
'cause it'll grow 'till the world
Don't go 'round no moreBut I can't give back the love
I feel for you
I'm gonna be stuck with it
No matter what I doBut I can't give back the love
I feel for you
I'm gonna be stuck with it
No matter what I doBut I can't give back the love
I feel for you
I'm gonna be stuck with it
No matter what I do
