Nothing happens when you're counting the cost

you fill the basket when the bread gets tossed

castaway upon the waterfront

step right in and take whatever you want

chorus 1:

It's a written guarantee

when I give it up to you

you give it back to me

It's a written guarantee

when I give it up to you

you give it back to me

Full of feelings that I couldn't afford

till I up and threw my heart overboard

take it all 'cause I remember when

I lost my life so you could find it again

chorus 2:

It's a written guarantee

when I give it up to you

you give it back to me

Who is gonna disagree

when I give it up to you

you give it back to me

Nothing happens when I'm counting the cost

you fill the basket when the bread gets tossed
