Her loving comes as silver linings
Up on them big dark stormy clouds
Just as I'm getting dry
She let's that water fly
And all of my castle tumbles down
Tumbles down

And I built this cold remission
Of my own disposition
I chose to speak not listen
And this is what I said, I whispered

Give me loving
Give me time or give me nothing (x3)
You give me nothing
You give me nothing now

And who you gonna call
When there's no one there to answer
Cause you cut the line right from the root
You didn't waste no time

And I'm thinking, that maybe
This reason I've gone crazy
Ain't for some lack of faith
But rather a mild distaste

Give me loving
Give me time or give me nothing (x2)
I could sing and write my thoughts
But I'd lose out to your siren song and
I finally learned where to draw the line
You can take your sweet ass time
But don't waste mine

Is your glory worth more than
My ability to show you that I'm something
Worth keeping, but you missed out
You gave me nothing, so you get nothing now
