If I give you my heart, would you love me forever?

Ohoho.

Oh, I learned when I was a young boy
You turn your cheek you get slapped, yeah
I take the punches, I can't slip
And I give it right back.

Oh, even if I win, girl
You know it really won't mean too much
What I want, baby, most of all
Is the only thing that I can't touch.

If I give you my heart, would you love me forever?
Would you pick up the pieces if I stumble and fall?
If my world falls apart, could you keep it together?
If I can't have you I don't want no-one at all.

Oh yeah, yeaheah.

Oh, just because I'm so quiet
Just because I don't cry
Oooh, the hardest lesson to learn, girl
Is how to take it inside.

But there's leather and jewels to soothe me
But it really isn't what I need
Oh, there's an aching hurt inside of me
And it's the kind of thing you don't see.

Oh, if I give you my heart, would you love me forever?
Would you pick up the pieces if I stumble and fall?
If my world falls apart, could you keep it together?
If I can't have you I don't want no-one at all.

Oh, baby
Yeah!
Oh, oh, oh yeah!

Now the years are unwinding
But I still feel the hurt
I've been fighting my whole life
For the privilege to work.

Now I've stopped and looked around me
There's nobody left to blame
If I don't have you to hold me, girl
All of my work's in vain.

Oh, if I give you my heart, would you love me forever?
Would you pick up the pieces if I stumble and fall?
If my world falls apart, could you keep it together?
If I can't have you I don't want no-one at all.

If I give you my heart, girl, would you love me forever?
Oh yeah, stumble and fall
Oh, baby, keep it together
Don't want no-one at all. 

Oh yeah, yeah
Yeah, baby
Oh yeah!
Yeah, yeah, ohoho.
