Shouldn't Have Took More Than You Gave

Shouldn't have took more than you gave

Then we wouldn't be in this mess today

I know we've all got different ways

But the dues we've got to pay are still the same

Just trying to change the script for this old play

You're reading and not feelin' what you say

Comin' on too strong for me to stay

Interpret what you're seein' anyway

Seems the simple things are hardest to explain

We're just gonna come too soon, gettin' all the pain

Footprints in the snow will show whether things are still the same

'Til you get the warmth of sun or someone to help you live again

Shouldn't have took more than you gave

Then we wouldn't be in this mess today

I know we've all got different ways

But the dues we've got to pay, are still the same

Shouldn't have took more than you gave

Shouldn't have took more than you gave

Shouldn't have took more than you gave

Shouldn't have took more than you gave

Oh yeah, one more time
