Love is everything lyrics

Artist  : Jane siberry 
Song : Love is everything
 
maybe it was to learn how to love 
maybe it was to learn how to leave 
maybe it was for the games we played 
maybe it was to learn how to choose 
maybe it was to learn how to lose 
maybe it was for the love we made  
 
love is everything they said it would be 
love made sweet and sad the same 
but love forgot to make me too blind to see 
you`re chickening out aren`t you? 
you`re bangin` on the beach like an old tin drum 
I cant wait `til you make 
the whole kingdom come 
so I`m leaving  
 
maybe it was to learn how to fight 
maybe it was for the lesson in pride 
maybe it was the cowboys` ways 
maybe it was to learn not to lie 
maybe it was to learn how to cry 
maybe it was for the love we made  
 
love is everything they said it would be 
love did not hold back the reins 
but love forgot to make me too blind to see 
you`re chickening out aren`t you? 
you`re bangin` on the beach like an old tin drum 
I cant wait `til you make 
the whole kingdom come 
so I`m leaving  
 
first he turns to you 
then he turns to her 
so you try to hurt him back 
but it breaks your body down 
so you try to love bigger 
bigger still 
but it...it`s too late  
 
so take a lesson from the strangeness you feel 
and know you`ll never be the same 
and find it in your heart to kneel down and say 
I gave my love didn`t I? 
and I gave it big...sometimes 
and I gave it in my own sweet time 
I`m just leaving  
 
love is everything...
