The Giving Tree şarkı sözleri

I was temporarily blind by a neon dollar sign It pacified my mind and whispered things are fine Said, "Boy, if you wanna heal just sign this paper deal You'll never have to beg, no, you'll never have to steal" But when that giving tree stops giving I've gotta get back to living, living like I did before With a mattress on the floor and no food in my kitchen I gotta get back to living like I did before Living like I did before Trading one pound of gold for now ten pounds of flesh You gotta sell this old soul for whatever you can get Trading one pound of gold for now ten pounds of flesh You gotta sell this old soul for whatever you can get (whatever you can get) Down in the city streets grows a giving tree Out of solid stone, mortared by my bone And watered by my tears, strengthened by my fears It's gonna grow strong, it's gonna live long—gonna haunt me for years But when that giving tree stops giving I've gotta get back to living, living like I did before With a mattress on the floor and no food in my kitchen I gotta get back to living like I did before Living like I did before Trading one pound of gold for now ten pounds of flesh You gotta sell this old soul for whatever you can get Trading one pound of gold for now ten pounds of flesh You gotta sell this old soul for whatever you can get (whatever you can get) It's beautiful fruit seems ripe at ground level It's dangerous roots lead straight down to the devil Lead straight down to the devil Lead straight down to the devil Lead straight down to the devil When that giving tree stops giving I've gotta get back to living, living like I did before With a mattress on the floor and no food in my kitchen I gotta get back to living like I did before Trading one pound of gold for now ten pounds of flesh You gotta sell this old soul for whatever you can get Trading one pound of gold for now ten pounds of flesh You gotta sell this old soul for whatever you can get Trading one pound of gold for now ten pounds of flesh You gotta sell this old soul for whatever you can get Trading one pound of gold for now ten pounds of flesh You gotta sell this old soul for whatever you can get (one pound of gold, ten pounds of flesh) (sell this old soul, 'ever you can get) Like I did before (one pound of gold, ten pounds of flesh) (sell this old soul, 'ever you can get) Like I did before (one pound of gold, ten pounds of flesh) (gonna sell this old soul for whatever you can get) (one pound of gold, ten pounds of flesh) (gonna sell this old soul for whatever you can get) Like I did before....
