Lyrics
:

GIVE ME LOVE
GIVE ME HOPE
GIVE ME STRENGTH
GIVE ME SOMEONE TO LIVE FOR

(Let's go)

Who will light the fire
That I need to survive
Who will be the life blood
Coursing through my veins

Like a river flowing
That will never change
I need someone
I can depend on

'Cause I'm a man of emotion
Who can't hide the tears
I'm a man of feeling
Who can't hide the pain
I'm alone on the outskirts of town
Where no one knows my name
I'm at the point in my life
Where I need affection

OH, WON'T YOU
GIVE ME LOVE (Give me love)
GIVE ME HOPE (Give me hope)
GIVE ME STRENGTH
GIVE ME SOMEONE TO LIVE FOR

GIVE ME LOVE (Give me love)
GIVE ME HOPE (Give me hope)
GIVE ME STRENGTH
GIVE ME SOMEONE TO LIVE FOR

I NEED IT NOW
I NEED IT NOW

(Let's go)

Someone write me a letter
I need to know that I'm still alive
Someone give me a telephone call
I need to hear a human sound
Someone open the door
Let me out of this place
I've been caged up for oh so long
I don't know if I'm living or dying
Oh no, God oh Lord

SOMEONE BETTER
GIVE ME LOVE (Give me love)
GIVE ME HOPE (Give me hope)
GIVE ME STRENGTH
GIVE ME SOMEONE TO LIVE FOR

GIVE ME LOVE (Give me love)
GIVE ME HOPE (Give me hope)
GIVE ME STRENGTH
GIVE ME SOMEONE TO LIVE FOR

(Well Chicago)

I walk alone across the outskirts of town
I can't control what I'm going through now
I know
Will you light the fire that I need to survive
Will you donate the life blood
coursing through my veins
Will you open up the door,  let me out of this place

I've been caged up for oh so long
I don't know if I'm living or dying

WON'T YOU
WON'T YOU
GIVE ME LOVE (Give me love)
GIVE ME HOPE (Give me hope)
GIVE ME STRENGTH
GIVE ME SOMEONE TO LIVE FOR

GIVE ME LOVE (Give me love)
GIVE ME HOPE (Give me hope)
GIVE ME THE STRENGTH
GIVE ME SOMEONE
I NEED IT NOW
I NEED IT NOW
I NEED IT TONIGHT
I NEED IT NOW
I NEED IT NOW
I NEED IT NOW
I NEED IT NOW
AH, GIVE ME LOVE

GIVE ME LOVE
