Rebekka Bakken - Love Is Everything

{Verse 1}
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

{Chorus}
Love was 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 banging on the beach like an old tin drum
Can't wait for you to makе the whole kingdom come
So I'm lеaving

{Verse 2}
Maybe it was to learn how to fight
Maybe it was for the lesson of pride
Maybe it was for the cowboys' ways
Maybe it was to learn how to lie
Maybe it was to learn how to cry
Or maybe it was for the love we made

{Chorus}
Love was 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 banging on the beach like an old tin drum
I can't wait for you to make the whole kingdom come
So I'm leaving

{Bridge}
First I turn to you
Then I turn away
So you try to hurt me back
Oh, but it takes your body down
So you try to love bigger
Bigger still
But it is too late

{Chorus}
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, I gave it in my own sweet time
I'm just leaving
I'm just leaving
