Keep On Giving Me Love
Oh, you told me you were burned by holy water,
And the priest forgot the words he was trying to say.
It seems your best friend is your own reflection,
and no promise of love is gonna make you wanna stay.
I don't mind, you can think it over slow and tell me what you find.
I'm marking time, if you got love to give, baby, I don't mind.
Keep on giving me loving, keep on giving me loving,
Keep on giving me loving, keep on giving me love.
You got fox eyes, they burn like a sunrise,
You got a walk that makes a mans' blood turn to wine.
You bought and sold me for you lover,
As long as you feed me good, baby, I don't mind.
I don't mind, you can think it over slow and tell me what you find.
I'm marking time, if you got love to give, baby, I don't mind.
Keep on giving me loving, keep on giving me loving,
Keep on giving me loving, keep on giving me love.

So you told me you were burned by holy water,
And the priest forgot the words he was trying to say.
It seems your best friend is your own reflection,
and no promise of love is gonna make you wanna stay.
I don't mind, you can think it over slow and tell me what you find.
I'm marking time, if you got love to give, baby, I don't mind.
Keep on giving me loving, keep on giving me loving,
Keep on giving me loving, keep on giving me love.
 
Northwinds
Taking it easy, taking it slow riding home to lay my body down.
Thought about it long enough to let it slip away.
I feel like a stranger today lost in who is across the water
Took me away from home.
It seems that you gave enough to get down on your knees and pray
I've been waiting for the sun to shine to spirit the rain away
I take sun that fall down on lord calling on the northwinds
When the cloud get in the way nothing ever changes the sun remains the same
You've got a long way to give to sit down on an empty train

It's been a long time, I'm black and blue
Taking it easy, living from day to day
Sometimes it feels so good to finally see life
Write it in a notebook, you won't repeat it twice
I'll take the sun before the rain anyday
Call on the northwinds when clouds get it the way
Nothing ever changes the sun remains the same
Oh I've got a long way to give, I'm sitting on an empty train
I could make it sound oh so easy when you live my life for so long
I seems it ain't never it ain't never enough to set down on your knees and pray
So tell me how does the train live on...
I've missed an empty train
 
Give Me Kindness
See me crying looking at the bottom floor
I wrote on my glass like a crystal ball
Oh us with that velvet eyes they look so sweet and fine
One night loving, all we discovered
Making love on a one track mind
Tell me who, who, who went fooling who
Baby, baby, give me kindness
Warm me with the morning sun
Help me, lose this blindness
To see my life I'll be gone
Honey if you are like me I just want to know if
if your love is true cause one day I'll chone
On all this whiskey and come and I'll put the blame on you.
Maybe baby you show me some more
Everytime I want to hold you baby
Give me what a good woman should
Tell me who, who, who has been fooling who
Baby, baby, give me kindness
Warm me with the morning sun
Help me, lose this blindness
To see my life I'll be gone

Sing out brothers (sing out brothers)
Sing out sisters (sing out sisters)
Tell me like it is, like it is, like it is night or day.
Sing out brothers (sing out brothers)
Sing out sisters (sing out sisters)
We can always drink the water
But you know we're gonna drink the wine.
Sing out brothers (sing out brothers)
Sing out sisters (sing out sisters)
Tell me like it is, like it is
Like it is night or day
Sing out brothers (sing out brothers)
Sing out sisters (sing out sisters)
We can always drink the water
But you know we're gonna drink the wine
Baby, baby, give me kindness
Warm me with the morning sun
Help me, lose this blindness
To see my life I'll be gone
 
Time And Again
Baby, I realise it was you
You always want everything right
Summer days and winter nights
Lonely, I open my eyes and your smile greets me
And whisper words to tell me it's alright
I'll stay by you in your darkest nights
Tine and again the situation shows
You make it better
Time and again I realize you are
The morning of my day
Time and again my feeling let me know
You make it better
Wasted words on conversation
All I want to do is talk
About my love, woman I love
I never, I could be this way
When I hold you in my arms
I know that's where I want to stay
This is the place I should be
Spreading the harmony my love
You and I all this talk
And the words seem to fade
I don't ever, ever have to world (?)
I'm always the fool in the end
Tine and again the situation shows
You make it better
Time and again I realize you are
The morning of my day
Time and again my feeling let me know
You make it better
Wasted words a necessary separation
 
Queen Of Hearts
She was the keeper of all my reason, possessor of all I owned,
She kept me on the edge of darkness with words as cold as stone.
Then you came along, your eyes were flashing with desire,
oh babe, you got me burning, so much you got my soul on fire.
Honey, you move me, you got me so I can't sleep at night,
You tell me you believe in me and you say you're gonna treat me right.
You gave me the answer, I knew right from the start.
I'm gonna tell you, holy roller, they say that love's a gamble,
But, I got the Queen of Hearts.
If I could touch the crystal silence that we have after making love,
just to tell you I need you here in the glow of the stars above.
if you ever leave, or deceive or fool around,
you could be right, you could be wrong,
but, woman, I know I'll miss you when you're gone.
Honey, you move me, like the wind thro' a willow tree.
ain't no doubt about it, baby, you make the blindman see.
You gave me the answer, I knew right from the start.
I'm gonna tell you, holy Roller, they say that love's a gamble.
But, I got the Queen of Hearts.
You drive me crazy when you walk, crazy when you talk,
Crazy when you walk with me.
You gave me the answer, I knew right from the start.
I'm gonna tell you, holy roller, gonna tell you, holy roller.
You're the Queen of Hearts.

You gave me the answer,
I knew right from the start.
I'm gonna tell you, holy roller,
You're the Queen of Hearts...

Only My Soul
Only my soul, stops me crying, wondering why I feel alone.
And only my love keeps me from weeping, so bad,
Giving me strength, to carry on.
Lead me on thro' restless waters, walk with me along the way.
Live the moment, and tomorrow.
For the Lord will take it all on judgement day.
Broken dreams lay all around me, sad eyed children of despair.
Whispered voices in the distance, call me on to who knows where.
Lead me on thro' restless waters, walk with me along the way.
Live the moment, and tomorrow.
'Cos the Lord will take it all on judgement day,
And the Lord will take it all on judgement day.
Hear me crying out for love.
Hear me crying out for love.
I'll never let you know it,
I can only show it in my song.
Only my soul.

Hear me crying out for love.
Hear me crying out for love.
I'll never let you know it,
I can only show it in my song.
Only my soul...
 
Say You Love Me

If I could see before my time ends
The smile you gave me before the pain
I could accept this world of darkness
Never ever to see the sun again.
Never ever gonna leave ya
Dry your eyes and smile again.

See the world and I need to hear
Say you love me, say you love me
That you need me
I can't take this anymore

But I know I must be strong
To keep believing right or wrong
I've got time but I can't wait too long
Want to get you home where you belong

Say you love me, say you love me
I can't take it anymore
Say you love me, baby, baby, baby
Say that you need me, I can't take it anymore
Say you love me, say you love me
I can't take it anymore
Say you love me, baby, baby, baby
Say that you need me, I can't take it anymore
 
Breakdown
Getting near the end, now I knew the time was right for a breakdown.
Megaton surprise but your eyes never made it a shakedown.
Shot you full of rock 'n' roll, couldn't make your soul,
Didn't burn you to the bone.
Do what the man says, take the money and run.
But, I never saw the splendour in stealing all your gold,
taking all your silver and doing what I'm told.
I never saw the tears but I knew you cried for rhythm 'n' blues.
Screaming like a wildcat I knew that I had nothing to lose.
Shot you full of rock 'n' roll, couldn't make your soul,
Didn't burn you to the bone.
Do what the man says, take the money and run.
But, I never saw the splendour in stealing all your gold,
taking all your silver and doing what I'm told.
It's just a breakdown, breakdown,
breakdown, breakdown.

Shaking like a leaf in the wind see me blowing away.
Never see me fall on the ground till I've had my say.
Shot you full of rock 'n' roll, couldn't make your soul,
Didn't burn you to the bone.
Do what the man says, take the money and run.
But, I never saw the splendour in stealing all your gold,
taking all your silver and doing what I'm told.
It's just a breakdown, breakdown,
Breakdown, it's just a breakdown.

Getting near the end, now I knew the time was right for a breakdown.
Megaton surprise but your eyes never made it a shakedown.
Shot you full of rock 'n' roll, couldn't make your soul,
Didn't burn you to the bone.
Do what the man says, take the money and run.
But, I never saw the splendour in stealing all your gold,
taking all your silver and doing what I'm told.
It's just a breakdown, breakdown,
Breakdown, breakdown.
