You Owe Me Nothing in Return

You Owe Me Nothing - Alanis Morissette

I'll give you countless amounts of outright acceptance if you

Want it

I will 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 to it

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 to it

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

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 wonder how far you have now danced

You 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 your way to

Your bliss I'll empathize with

You can say that you have to skip town to

Chase your passion and I'll hear it

You can even hit rock bottom have a mid life

Crisis and I'll hold 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 owe me nothing for giving the love that I

Gave you

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
