  • What I'd give to bring you flowers
    What I'd give to get you alone
    What I'd give to bring a smile across your face
    What I'd give to take you home

    What I'd give to make you coffee
    Find out how you like your eggs
    Wrapped around you in the mornin'
    A tangled lace of arms and legs

    What I'd give to let you love me
    Find out everything that brings you joy
    Wake up to your face above me
    I'd be that girl and you could be that boy
    Find out why that feelin' is
    Oh, what I'd give, what I'd give

    What I'd give to take you dancin'
    What I'd give to make you mine
    If you got questions, I got answers
    And my answer's "yes" to you every time

    What I'd give for just one minute
    What I'd give to count all the ways
    If your heart was dark with nothing in it
    I'd give you mine and take your place

    What I'd give to let you love me
    Find out everything that brings you joy
    Wake up to your face above me
    I'd be that girl and you could be that boy
    Find out why that feelin' is
    Oh, what I'd give, what I'd give Writer/s: CLAYTON MITCHELL, JENNIFER NETTLES, KRISTIAN BUSH
