You lost out, tied down
Red letters, they fall and hit the ground
But I won't let them in the way
I strike out, sit down
Spark another up and take a bow
’Cause they're not getting in today

'Cause what I would do for you
Is more than you’ll ever know
Is more than you'll ever need to know

Dark streets, cold hands
Winter falls but I can't meet demands
I'm living on the other side
Hard life, hard lives
A shoebox filled with cash and no surprise
That I'ma be home late tonight

'Cause what I would do for you
Is more than you'll ever know
Is more than you'll ever need to know
What I would do for you
Is more than I’ll ever show
It’s more than I'll ever care to show

If it all falls down
Will you be around to pick the pieces up I left behind?
If it all falls down
Will you still be there waiting for me on the other side?

’Cause what I would do for you
Is more than you'll ever know
Is more than you'll ever need to know
What I would do for you
Is more than I'll ever show
It’s more than I'll ever care to show

What I would do for you
Is more than you'll ever know
