I burned all the letters that you never wrote
I broke all the promises you never spoke
I swallowed my pride
Till I thought I would choke
Given 'bout all I can take
I've given 'bout all I can take
You want somebody
Guess, we all do
You've got a heart
That won't let it come true
And I never was one to fake
Given 'bout all I can take
I've given 'bout all I can take
I cried over milk that never was spilled
And I've danced to waltzes
And you just stood still
Time is much too precious to kill
Given 'bout all I can take
I've given 'bout all I can take
You want somebody
Guess, we all do
You've got a heart
That won't let it come true
And I never was one to fake
Given 'bout all I can take
I've given 'bout all I can take
Oh, I've given 'bout all I can take
