Joan Shelley - Give It Up, It's Too Much Lyrics

Joan Shelley Lyrics

"Give It Up, It's Too Much"

Give it up, you breaking heart
Give it up, you breaking heart
Give it up, you breaking heart
It's too much
It's too much
It's too much to hold

Nothing extra, leave it at the door
Let's see something worth begging, barking for
You need some meat, you're an omnivore
I'm rare
I'm rare
I'm rare

Give it up you breaking hearts
Give it up you breaking hearts
Give it up you breaking hearts
It's too much to hold

You've been feeding the mice in the cellar
While the garden's as dry as a desert
Oh honey you can't hide
Full moon in each eye
Can't you see that you're wide open?
The country choir's spoken, "It's time, it's time"

Give it up you breaking hearts
Give it up you breaking hearts
Give it up you breaking hearts
It's too much
It's too much
It's too much to hold
