Paul Anka - I Gave a Little and Lost a Lot lyrics
[Paul Anka - I Gave a Little and Lost a Lot lyrics]
Any man can hope to find
Faith and trust had
Seen us through so many times
But friends were full of envy
cause she treated me like a king
And, I took her love for granted
And I lost everything
I called to say, I'm working babe
She always understands
That's what excuse I'd use when
I had other things planned
Came to the house and found myself in
The room with someone I knew
These were just the days in
Which she was going through
Now, I gave a little and I lost a lot
Holding on to someone, I no longer got
I was fooling around with 7 that
I had to bring to prom
And I ended up giving a little
And I lost a lot
Now, you men may need this warning
If you got a nice woman, by your side
If you go have wish, at a certain place
And there she'll arrive
And you end up giving little
And you lose a lot
Now, I gave a little and I lost a lot
Holding on to someone I no longer got
I was fooling around with 7
That I brought to prom
And I ended up giving little and I lost a lot
(Outro until fade)
And I ended up giving little and I lost a lot
