Lyrics

Can I Have What You Have?
[©2020 W. Livesay]

Come on and take me down
To that place you call home
I don’t know where it is
But I do know it’s someplace out there
Touch me now feel my heart
Beating for my place in the sun
Too many trees are shading the light
All I ask is a glimmer of hope
Can I have what you have?
If you say no I may take it anyway
Can I have what you have?
I may take it tomorrow
If I don’t take it today
Looked out my window storm clouds coming
I don’t know how long they will last
Won’t you help me to just hold on
And keep me from drowning
Until I’m a man
God is great, God is good
Let us thank him for this food
Oh, but tell me what good is the thanks
When there is no food on the table
Can I have what you have?
If you say no I may take it anyway
Can I have what you have?
I may take it tomorrow
If I don’t take it today
Someone teach me right from wrong
It’s not a good thing to always be wanting
Help me to get back something I don’t have
Instead of taking someone else’s treasure
Holding a gun between their eyes
And demanding is such a mortal sin
Or should I turn this weapon on myself
Because I can’t deal with the pressures of life
Can I have what you have?
If you say no I may take it anyway
Can I have what you have?
I may take it tomorrow
If I don’t take it today
