Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Give me love, give me hope
Give me strength, give me someone to live for
[Verse 2]
Who will light the fire that I need to survive?
Who will be the life blood coursing through my veins?
Like a river flowin' that will never change
I need someone I can depend on
Oh, whoa
[Verse 3]
'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, whoa
[Verse 4]
Won't you give me love? Give me hope
Give me strength, give me someone to live for
Give me love, give me hope
Give me strength, give me someone to live for
I need it now
I need it now
[Verse 5]
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 up a door and let me out of this place
I've been caged up for oh so long, I don't know if I'm livin' or dyin'
Oh whoa
[Verse 6]
Someone better give me love, give me hope
Give me strength, give me someone to live for
Give me love, give me hope
Give me strength, give me someone to live for
Give me love, give me hope...
