LYRICS TO GIVE ME YOUR LOVING

words and music by Carter Cathcart

You and I always play the game of conversation
Talking 'bout the weather is as far as we can get
Got to try to remedy the situation
'cause talk is cheap - the time is now for me to hedge my bet (Let me show you)

(chorus)Give me your loving - you're the one I long for - I sing this song for
Give me your loving - in the open so I can see
Give me your loving - and the present will reveal the future
the moment you admit that you love me

Every night I chase my thoughts around in circles
We should be together - that's what I'm trying to say
It's a fight to show my heart and not offend you
But the lightning strikes - the spirit screams - I can't go on this way (Let me show you)

(chorus)

The body moves - the track is loud
We play the game - but talk is cheap
The time is now to show my heart
The lightning strikes - the spirit screams - I can't go on this way (let me show you)

(chorus)
