You Generous Thing You

You Generous Thing You
You give me everything
You give me all I need
You tell me what is right
And you always keep tabs on my greed
Your love is a generous thing
Tumble down bridges
That you swore you burned
But it soon turned out
That the tables had turned
Always asking questions
Always keeping me ill
Always keep me fed
Keep me very still

Your love is a generous thing
I burn my hands for you
Burn my eyes for you
Burn my life for you
You lose everything
Seem to lose everything
You lose everything
But you still get to choose anything
Up up away
Your love is a generous thing
Your love is a treacherous thing
Your love is a degenerate thing
