Love / Action

(albüm: Love / Action - 1981)

I didn't break my back upon the chain gang
But it doesn't mean that I don't care
She found me without holes in my shoes
And with a heart without despair
I'd just been gently swimming my way
Out to sea against the tide
And she threw out a line to me
Said hey you could have died

She give me love action

No more faking papers
No more lighting fires
No more playing hide and seek
With my feelings and desires
I traded my ticket on the gravy train
To sing one part harmony
And I'd still be waiting for that train in vain
To shine it's light on me

She give me love action

The higher up you climb then the further you fall
Did you see the message written on the pad in the hall
It said you're bound to fall you will that's all
Did you see the message written on the pad in the hall

So no more TV dinners
Maybe no more TV
No more wondering why the hero
Never looks like me
I'd just been gently swimming my way
Out to sea against the tide
And she threw out a line to me
Said hey you could have died

She give me love action
