Throw It Away

[Verse 1]
I think about the life I live
A figure made of clay
And think about the things I lost
The things I gave away
And when I'm in a certain mood
I search the house and look
One night I found these magic words
In a magic book

[Chorus]
Throw it away
Throw it away
Give your love, live your life
Each and every day
And keep your hand wide open
And let the sun shine through
'Cause you can never lose a thing
If it belongs to you

[Verse 2]
There's a hand that rocks the cradle
And a hand that helps us stand
With a gentle kind of motion
As it moves across the land
And the hand's unclenched and open
Gifts of life and love it brings
So keep your hand wide open
If you're needing anything

[Chorus]
Throw it away
Throw it away
Give your love, live your life
Each and every day
And keep your hand wide open
And let the sun shine through
'Cause you can never lose a thing
If it belongs to you

[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
There's a natural obligation
To what we own and claim
Possessing and belonging to
Acknowledging a name
So keep your hand wide open
If you're needing love today
Cause you can't lose it even if you
Throw it all away

[Chorus]
Throw it away
Throw it away
Live your life, give your love
Each and every day
And keep your hand wide open
And let the sun shine through
'Cause you can never lose a thing
If it belongs to you
