It's feeling like it's time to ring the changes
|
It's feeling like it's time to be reborn
|
'Cause here we go again
|
Proclaiming it's the end
|
And reaching out for something
|
To bring it back again
|
We're living on a good fortune
|
We're cheating all our friends
|
So tell me, oh tell me
|
Now where's it going to end.
|
|
I hope it's not too late to see the danger
|
I'd really like to wake and see the dawn
|
'Cause here we go again
|
We're trying to pretend
|
We're blaming one another
|
For what is ours to mend
|
We're fighting for the future
|
We're ringing out the past
|
It feels good, it feels good
|
But is it going to last?
|
|
Give me love,
|
Give me love, give me joy, give me pain
|
Give me light, give me starting again
|
Give me hope,
|
Give me hope, give me sun, give me rain
|
Get me up, get me dancing again
|
Give me life,
|
Give me life, give me high, give me low
|
Give me truth, give me something to know
|
Give me time,
|
Give me time, give me room, give me rope
|
Give me sign, give me reason to hope
|
|
'Cause everything is a turn up, turnaround
|
And everything is just upside, upside-down
|
Well, everything is not like you'd like it to be
|
Everything is a two-bit, two-bit town
|
And everybody's just out to drag you down
|
Well nothing is as you'd like it to be
|
|
Well everything is a turn up, turnaround
|
And everything is just upside, upside-down
|
Well nothing is as you'd like it to be
|
And everything is a two-bit, two-bit town
|
And everybody's just out to drag you down
|
Well nothing is as you'd like it, like it to be
|
I may not love you, but I can't stop thinking 'bout
|
you
|
Give me love... reason to hope
|
I see just what I want to see
|
Just what I want to be
|
I can be anytime, anyplace, anywhere
|
I go just where I want to go
|
Just when I want to know
|
I can go anytime, anyplace, anywhere
|
|
Things just ain't what they used to be
|
Ain't what they ought to be
|
Ain't what they've got to be, gonna be probably
|
|
Things just ain't gonna get to me
|
Ain't gonna bother me
|
Ain't gonna worry me, hurry me, let'em be
|
|
Give me love,
|
Give me love, give me joy, give me pain
|
Give me light, give me starting again
|
Give me hope,
|
Give me hope, give me sun, give me rain
|
Get me up, get me dancing again
|
Give me life,
|
Give me life, give me high, give me low
|
Give me truth, give me something to know
|
Give me time,
|
Give me time, give me room, give me rope
|
Give me sign, give me reason to hope
|
GIVE ME LIFE

Give Me Love, Give Me Life
