Roger Hodgson - Give Me Love, Give Me Life lyrics

rate me

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

We're reaching out for something to bring it back again

We're living on 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 ringin' out the past

It feels good, it feels good but is it going to last

Chorus:

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 upside, upside-down

Well everything's 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, like it to be

Well everything is a turn up, turnaround

And everything is upside, upside-down

Well everything's 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, like it to be

I may not love you, but I can't stop thinking 'bout you

Repeat Chorus

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 it be

Repeat Chorus
