I Only Got a Few

I'm going back
To the place where I was raised
I still remember the day we got engaged
I waited three years for you to say you'd give me a date
I remember admitting that night
That there was nothing left to say

The sky in our backyard never looked so blue
But I'd still run home to you if you ever want me to
I have spent years waiting for you
And I only got a few
I only got a few
I only got a few

I will think about you every 25th of June
I still mean the words in every letter I've written you
Now Valentine's Day might not disappoint you
'Cause I only got a few
And I wasted a few

I used to fit one on each arm now I think they look like you
And they used to run around 'til dark now they're sleeping in 'til noon
And I had spent years hoping that you
Would change like you promised to
You asked for a chance or two
But I

I gave more than a few
I tried to do it all for you
I wanted to see our years through
And I only got a few
But I'd give the rest to you
Even if I only got a
Few
