Wanna Live - Got To Give
[Intro]
When our love was new
You were all I had
And I died for you
When the nights were bad
[Verse 1]
Like a mountain stream
At the break of dawn
And the primal scream
When a child is born
Wanna live
Got to give
[Verse 2]
I lost my youth
And my confidence
When I fought for truth
With my innocence
Like the ocean waves
When the sea gives birth
In the seeds of grain
Grow in Mother Earth
[Chorus]
Wanna live
Got to give
Wanna live
[Verse 3]
Across the universe
Pain is nothing new
Still it's getting worsе
Oh, if I'm losing you
So please don't go
[Verse 4]
Love mе once again
Before my time is out
Pour a little rain
Oh, in this time of drought
Please don't go
[Verse 5]
When our love was deep
Though at times I cried
When I went to sleep
With your loving sigh
And the universe above
[Chorus]
Wanna live
Got so much to give
Wanna live
