Lyrics
I Want To Live
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The man you want is the man I am
The one you used to have still standing by your side
The love I need is the love you give
Could you give it to me now
I want to live I want to live
I want to see tomorrow yeah
So I can see you tomorrow yeah yeah yeah yeah
The man upstairs must have a plan
The one you used to have has disappeared from view
But here comes me looking for a kiss
Could you give it to me now
I want to live I want to live
I want to see tomorrow yeah
So I can see you tomorrow yeah yeah yeah yeah
The time you lose working for the man
The time you used to have is never coming back
But the love you make well that's all there is
So could you give it to me now
I want to live I want to live
I want to see tomorrow yeah
So I can see you tomorrow yeah yeah yeah
I want to live I want to live
I want to see tomorrow yeah
