From the recording New Middle Class
Lyrics
GIVE IT BACK (Mike Borok)
Since I was small
My head's been filled with plans
But there's no holding on to dreams
They slip right through your hands
They slip away so easily
You might not even know
Until the ones who love you
Sadly say, "I told you so"
Give it back, give it all back
Nobody knows where our dreams go
Give it back, give it all back
You won't feel a thing ‘til tomorrow
I'd sing my songs
And dream of rave reviews
How friends would phone to say they'd seen me
On the evening news
But time goes by, now I believe
These dreams might not come true
But, darling, you still believe in me
And I believe in you
Give it back…
You won't feel a thing - no, no
Give it back, give it all back
Nobody knows where our dreams go
Give it back, give it all back
We may dream again tomorrow
