What God Gives

You bought me daisies

And you looked at me like I was God

You said I'm crazy

And I said

Of course, I am

You said I'm perfect

And you asked me how I got this way

You said you worship

And I said

What God gives

God takes away

What God gives

God takes away

What God gives

God takes away

But you do it so beautifully

Your love's like nothing I've ever seen

You say you want to cry for me

You say you want to breathe for me

You say you want to live for me

I say I believe in that kind of thing

But you do it so beautifully

Your love's like nothing I've ever seen

You say you want to cry for me

You say you want to breathe for me

You say you want to die for me

I say I believe in that kind of thing

Kneel, my martyr

Paint the floor with your vows

I taste your devotion

but I won't let you drown

Prove it

But darling, not today

Your love's too pretty to throw away
