GIVE YOU SOME

Lyric and Melody by

Tina Tufts-May




I know I ain't been the kind of man
You've always known I could be
Seein' all the goodness way deep down
I never ever saw in me

I've taken roads that I regret
And I've hurt so many on my way
I lost count I guess
Sure did my best
To sabotage you and me

But you just smiled
kissed me on my cheek and said

(Chorus)

If you're thirsty and want water
I will bring you some
If you're cold and lonely boy
I'll give you my love
But if forgiveness is what you're lookin' for first-
You gotta give you some


I asked her girl what you mean by that
She said take a look in the mirror
You can't love no one till' you love yourself
How can I make that any clearer

Then she hugged me and grabbed my hand
Brought me to a little church and said
You can hide from the world
But not from me
Not from God and not from yourself

(Repeat Chorus)

If you're thirsty and want water
I will bring you some
If you're cold lonely boy
I'll give you my love
But if forgiveness is what you're lookin' for first
You gotta give you some


(Bridge)

For the first time I got on my knees - and started stumblin
through a prayer
Said, I'm so tired of hatin' who I am - Hey God....are you really there...that's when I heard...


(Chorus)

When you're thirsty and want water
I will bring you some
When you're cold and lonely boy
You have my love
And my forgiveness has always been yours my son
So give you some
That's when I gave me some...
