Gave It Away

You live in your prison, the one that you choose
You'd do anything to have nothing to lose
You got scared of escaping just a little too soon
You give up your shovel and dig with a spoon
You gave it away
Gave it away
Oh love, now you're out in the cold with your rockabye body
Your butterfly soul
Oh no, don't you grow old
You're just finding your way
With the current behind you, a clear summer sky
You call yourself stranded, a boat by your side
And your fistful of wishes, and your handful of hopes
You stash them away in the pit of your throat
You save them away
Save them away
Oh no, but it's taking its toll on your rockabye body
Your lullaby soul
Oh no, don't you grow old
You're just finding your way
Finding . . .
I got a dream for you sometime, that you'll admit to the tide
You'll push out in the ocean and go for a ride
You're sailing away
Sailing away
Oh no, don't you let go of your rockabye body
Your butterfly soul
Oh no, don't you grow old
You just find your way, find your way
Find your way
