She Gave It Away Lyrics - Rea Chris

She gave away all her love 

No reason to keep it 

She'd avoid it for only one 

But he didn't need it 

And downtown the midnite circus 

Hypnotised like a spinning top 

Offering her dreams, like the gloss magazines 

She had so much to give... so she gave it away 

And all of the loves you've known 

There must have been someone 

Who gave you that starry night 

You lay there two as one 

And who's going to point the finger? 

Only those who've never known 

She lost and she cried, tears run and dry 

And she'd so much to give... so she gave it away 

Mary was like you and I 

She remembers how she lay with him 

But to world she's just a drunken cheap trick 

Red light side kick, an angel downtown 

The priest calls her wednesdays 

And shows her a wooden cross 

He tells of the love he's found 

She thinks of the one she lost 

And downtown 

The midnite circus 

Hypnotised like a spinning top 

So easy to choose 

When there's nothing to lose 

She had so much to give... so she gave it away
