Pay It Forward
(Springfield/Bissonette)
Not much in common
for you and me
But the upside is
we can celebrate differently
Ain’t worth the
drama, ain’t rocket science
If we begin with
love we can make it unconditionally
If you’ve taken a
look at the News at Nine
Opened The Book and
you’ve seen the signs
You’ve gotta
believe it’s time
To give it away
Give it away,
darlin’ don’t hold on tight
When we can give it
away on every corner
Try to make this
world much warmer
Give it away, give
it away turn that great ship around, sail it shoreward
Just stand your
ground and pay it forward
Oh, Oh, Oh
The thunders
shaking both you and me
But the flip-side
is we can make electricity
Ain’t worth the
trauma, ain’t in defiance
But don’t
complicate, it’s the art of simplicity
When there’s
nothing in sight and you’re lost at sea
Alone in the night
and there’s no Plan B
The timing is right
to say
Come on
Give it away, give
it away darlin’ don’t hold on tight
when we can
Give it away on
every corner, try to make this world much warmer
Give it away, give
it away, turn that great ship round, sail it shoreward
Just stand your ground, and pay it forward
Give it away, give
it away darlin’ don’t lose the fight when we should
Give it away on
every border, burn the fires and make it warmer
Give it away, give
it away girl don’t ever lose sight, hold your corner
Oh, Oh, Oh
Oh, Oh, Oh
Oh, Oh, Oh
So much in common
with you and me
You know it’s true
only love’ll ever set you free
Give it away, give
it away darlin’ don’t hold on tight
When we can give it
away on every corner try to make this world much warmer
Give it away, give
it away turn that great ship around, sail it shoreward
Just stand your
ground and pay it forward
Give it away, give
it away darlin’ don’t lose the fight When we should give it away on
every border, burn the fires and make it warmer
Give it away, give
it away turn that great ship around, guide it shoreward
Just stand your
ground and pay it forward
Oh, Oh, Oh
Just turn around
and pay it forward
Oh, Oh, Oh
So stand your
ground and pay it forward
