Leo Sayer - Giving It All Away lyrics

I paid all my dues so I picked up my shoes

I got up and walked away

Oh, I was just a boy

Nobody else to blame...

I've worked hard and failed

Now all I can say is

I threw it all away

Oh, I was just a boy

Giving it all away...

Sail away, sail away,

Ooh, I know better now, I know better now

Giving it all away

Ooh, I know better now, I know better now

I've given it all away...

Went out in the world too much for my nerves

Only myself to blame

Oh, I was just a boy

Nobody else to blame...

I've done all I can, now it's out of my hands

Stand on my head and say

Oh, I was just a boy

Giving it all away...
