[Verse 1] Ain't there something I can give you? In exchange for everything you give to me Read my mind And make me feel just fine When I think my peace of mind is out of reach The scales are sometimes unbalanced And you bear the weight of all that has to be I hope you see that you can lean on me And together We can calm a stormy sea [Hook] We love so strong and so unselfishly And I tell you now that I made a vow I'm giving you the best that I got, baby Yes, I tell you now That I made a vow I'm giving you the best that I got, honey [Verse 2] Everybody's got opinions 'Bout the way they think our story's gonna end Some folks feel it's just a superficial thrill Everybody's gonna have to think again [Hook] We love so strong and so unselfishly They don't bother me so I'm gonna keep on Giving you the best that I got, baby They don't bother me Said I'm gonna keep on Giving you the best that I got [Bridge] Listen, baby Somebody understands me Somebody gave his heart to me I stumbled my whole life long Always on my own Now I'm home [Verse 3] My weary mind is rested And I feel as if my home is in your arms Fears are all gone I like the sound of your song And I think I want to sing it forever [Hook] We love so strong and so unselfishly And I made a vow so I tell you now I'm giving you the best that I got Listen, baby I bet everything on my wedding ring I'm giving you the best that I got Giving it to you, baby [Outro] Giving you the best that I got
