The original lyrics

I can't give you more than what I've got
You can't expect to get what I have not
I can only give you lovin' till the sun goes down
And until the leaves of summer turn to shades of brown

I try, and I try
But baby, you know that I can only give you everything

How can I get you to understand
'Cause after all, I am just a man
You are on my mind when stars appear and shadows fall
And when every little flower grows and bluebirds call

I try, and I try
But baby, you know that I can only give you everything

I'll do anything you want me to do
'Cause I don't want to know this life without you
Oh, don't ever go and leave me in this world alone
I'd be like a little child if I was on my own

I try, and I try
But baby, you know that I can only give you everything

Everything, baby
A little bit of this, a little bit of that
And everything
Whoa oh oh oh
