You Owe Me Nothing In Return

I'll give you countless amountsof outright acceptance if you want itI'll give you encouragement to choose the pathThat you want, if you need it.You can speak of anger and doubts,Your fears and freak-outs and I'll hold it.You can share your so-calledShamefilled accounts of times in your life and I won't judge it.And there are no strings attachedYou owe me nothing for giving the love that I give.You owe me nothing for caring the way that I have.I give you thanks for receiving, it's my privilege,And you owe me nothing in return.You can ask for space for yourselfAnd only yourself and I'll grant it.You can ask for freedom as wellOr time to revel and you'll have it.You can ask to live by yourselfOr love someone else and I'll support it.You can ask for anything you wantAnything at all and I'll understand it.And there are no strings attachedYou owe me nothing for giving the love that I give.You owe me nothing for caring the way that I have.I give you thanks for receiving, it's my privilege,And you owe me nothing in return.I bet you're wondering whenthe next payback shoe will eventually drop.I bet you're wondering whenmy conditional police will force you to cough up.I bet you're wondering howfar you have now danced your way back into debtThis is the only kind of loveAs I understand it that there really is.You can express your deepest of thruthsEven if it means I'll lose you and I'll hear it.You can fall into the abyssOn the way to your blissAnd I'll empathize with.You can say that you'll have to skip townTo chase your passion and I'll hear it.You can even hit a rock bottomHave a mid-life crisis and I'll hold itAnd there are no strings attachedYou owe me nothing for giving the love that I give.You owe me nothing for caring the way that I have.I give you thanks for receiving, it's my privilege,And you owe me nothing in return.
