She Takes More Than She Gives - Walter Trout

She gives me hope where I am empty When my tank on empty bae be gassing me up You know that water I just ordered over floweth my cup Uh huh we made it out the mud and now we runneth amuck Relief like Neosporin back when I was stuck in them cuts You know you come in the clutch, like stick-shifting the gears And we can go 4 rounds, I'm in here greasing the wheels I'm looking over girl you make it so uneasy to steer Now we in the backseat, I hope Jesus taking the wheel We on a collision course, Mr. and Mrs. of course Engaging in discourse, I'll give you everything you wishing for And then go get you more If I ain't riding with my Mrs. in form, then I'm missing form And obviously you been misinformed if you think this the norm 'Cause baby I need you, like fat kids need cake And like the cars needed drive Like Curtis Blow need the breaks-brakes Collecting royalties until them hundreds blue in the face I bought a karat for every hour, I'm with you all day And we gone grind until we Siamese stuck at the waist It's never too much space 'cause that's what true love takes Just bought a newer estate, but see a house ain't a home Until you in it, and you fill it, like when you giving me hope You know She gives me hope where I am empty Aye girl you know My back against the ropes you fill me up with hope Can't let it slip between my fingers cleaner than a bar of soap I'm like Will, I check my misdemeanor before I feel provoked And I will, catch more than a misdemeanor thinking it's a joke Get it rocking on stage it's clear that he ain't want the smoke I ain't even 2nd guessed-guest it, I don't care if you the host And now they swear I did the most I thought it over and replayed it Got 'em talking 'bout what Jae did, I just see my lady jaded Can't regret what I did, some don't respect what I did They ain't expect that the kid would act so reckless again This ain't the 1st time I reacted with aggression on cam And now they talking on my actions as if I'm less than a man But see I'm human like you, I saw the pain in her face If the fresh prince don't defend the queen, then I'm a disgrace Decided to leave a fresh print, right on the side of his face When we entitle heroes are they not entitled mistakes The hero's curse, weighs heavy on the heart of a man The harder you sin, the darker ya' skin, the harder to win I'm freefalling again, and that's when I need you the most Cause you all in with your love And that's what's giving me hope, you know When inside I feel like the whole world outside turned against me She gives me hope where I am empty Imagine will, watching all the press, demonize events Once a hero turns into a vigilante, he's a threat Highlighting all your worst moments as if you ain't tried ya' best Somebody got to hand out roses, before we all get laid to rest I imagine, if I was will I would feel depressed For believing in the process then the progress gets regressed Like when Martin had a dream, like when Malcolm donned the X Like Obama preaching change, now it's finally making sense (cents) The hero is cursed And they say there's no hope for the hero why Because the hero's curse But you bring me hope You know She gives me hope where I am empty

She wore that fallin' out of love look I even swore upon the good book Still the last lie I told her Was the one she couldn't believe No more cryin' on her shoulder She won't even let me hold her And this time I've hurt her more than she loves me I've been too busy drinkin', she's been too busy thinking 'Bout the kind of love she needs and the man she never sees But Lord, she's already stood more than I was ever good for And this time I've hurt her more than she loves me I've been too busy drinkin', she's been too busy thinking 'Bout the kind of love she needs and the man she never sees But Lord, she's already stood more than I was ever good for And this time I've hurt her more than she loves me Lord, this time I've hurt her more than she loves me

I got a feeling that this broken heart of mine Is gonna stay with me Longer than she did I'm on the wrong side of moving on Counting every minute 'til the crack of dawn There's an upside of lettin' go I ain't there yet but all I know is I got a list of songs my hurt my won't let me turn back on Unless I, I let the whiskey be the DJ Too many county roads these Goodyears used to drive her on So now I, I keep 'em running on the highway They say time gonna heal the pain Every cloud runs out of rain But I got a feeling that this broken heart of mine Is gonna stay with me Longer than she did All the could haves and should have beens Ain't gonna help bring her back again, yeah Around here everything I see Is tied up tight to a memory, yeah I got a list of songs my hurt won't let me turn back on Unless I, I let the whiskey be the DJ Too many county roads these Goodyears used to drive her on So now I, I keep 'em running on the highway They say time gonna heal the pain Every cloud runs out of rain But I got a feeling that this broken heart of mine Is gonna stay with me Longer than she did Yeah Yeah, I got a list of songs my hurt won't let me turn back on Unless I, I let the whiskey be the DJ, yeah Too many county roads these Goodyears used to drive her on So now I, I keep 'em running on the highway They say time gonna heal the pain Every cloud runs out of rain But I got a feeling that this broken heart of mine Is gonna stay with me Longer than she did I got a feeling that this broken heart of mine Is gonna stay with me Longer than she did
