[Verse 1]
Gifts are for givin'
But what can I give you? You've got it
Life is more livin'
But what can it offer? You've see it
[Chorus]
Everything's too small for you
No surprises, nothin' new
You're always lookin' for something to do
But you've done it
You've done it
[Verse 2]
You're seeking new friends
And paying a price for your laughter
You're always runnin'
You don't even know what you're after
[Chorus]
It's not that you try to go so high
You don't care what direction you fly
When you see somethin' you didn't try
And you want it
You want it
[Verse 3]
If I gave you flowers
You wouldn't accept them, that's easy
If I said I loved you
You wouldn't believe me, it's too easy
[Chorus]
So go on alone if you want it that way
I'll save all the warm things I wanted to say
Go run you rat race day after day
'Til you won it
You won it
[Verse 4]
Gifts are for givin'
But what can I give you? You've got it
Life is more livin'
But what can it offer? You've seen it
[Chorus]
Everything's too small for you
No surprises, nothin' new
You're always lookin' for somethin' to do
But you've done it
You've done it
