“ALL I HAVE TO GIVE”
(Performed by Back Street Boys)
 

I don't know what he does to make you cry

But I'll be there to make you smile
I don't have a fancy car
To get to you, I'd walk a thousand miles.
I don't care if he buys you nice things
Does his gifts come from the heart?
I don't know, but if you were my girl
I'd make it so we'd never be apart
 
CHORUS: When you talk, does it seem like
But my love is all I have to give He's not even listening to a word you say?
Without you I don't think I can live That's okay babe, just tell me your problems
I wish I could give the world to you I'll try my best to kiss them all away
But love is all I have to give Does he leave when you need him the most?
  Does his friends get all your time?
Baby please, I'm on my knees
Praying for the day that you'll be mine
 
CHORUS

Hey girl, I don't want you to cry no more inside
