Tell me a tale that always was,
Sing me a song that i'll always be in,
Tell me a story that i can read,
Tell me a story that i believe.
Paint me a picture that i can see,
Give me a touch that i can feel,
Turn me around so i can be,
Everything i was meant to be.
Lord i need loving,
Lord i need good, good loving. [x2]
Show me some strength that i can use,
Give me a sound that i won't refuse,
Tell me story that i can read,
Tell me a story that i can believe
Tell me a tale that always was,
Sing me a song that i'll always be in,
Turn me around so i can be,
Everything i was meant to be.
Lord i need loving,
Lord i need good, good loving. [x4]
