I'll give you countless amounts of

outright acceptance if you want it

I'll give you encouragement to

choose the path that 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-called shame-filled accounts

Of times in your life and I won't judge it.



And there are no strings attached...



You 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 yourself

And only yourself and I'll grant it.

You can ask for freedom as well

Or time to travel and you'll have it.



You can ask to live by yourself

Or love someone else and I'll support it.

You can ask for anything you want

Anything at all and I'll understand it.



And there are no strings attached...



(chorus 2)



I bet you're wondering when the next

payback shoe will eventually drop.

I bet you're wondering when my conditional

police will force you to cough up.

I bet you're wondering how far you

now have danced your way back into debt.

This is the only kind of love as

I understand it that there really is.



You can express your deepest of truths

Even if it means I'll lose you and I'll hear it.

You can fall into the abyss

On the way to your bliss

And I'll empathize with.

You can say you'll have to skip town

To chase your passion and I'll hear it.

You can leave and hit rock bottom

Have a mid-life crisis and I'll hold it.



And there are no strings attached...



(chorus 3/4)
