You Take Me Up

i work on the frontline

I work to survive

And I sleep in a fever - so this is my life.

I cry in my sleep - cry boy

Cry boy

It just makes me weep

When I try how I try.

I know what it means to work hard on machines.

It's a labour of love

So please

Don't ask me why.

I'm looking for reasons - day in

Day out.

I'm trying too hard - he's trying too hard.

I'm moving in circles - too hot

Too hot.

Don't get very far - don't get very far.

Should I ask she to dance - dance boy

Dance boy.

If I promise romance

Will you come for the ride.

I know what it means

To work hard on machines.

Do you believe in love one that lasts for all time.

You take me up

Oh ho

You take me up to the higher ground.

You take me up so high

Now I never want to come back down

I'm glad in these hard times - day in

Day out.

There's hope in your eyes - hope in his eyes.

I don't need a religion - too hot

Too hot.

'Cause this love never dies - love never dies.

I believe in today - believe boy

Believe boy.

It's better that way and you work through the night.

I know what it means

To work hard on machines.

It's a labour of love

So please

Don't ask me why.

You take me up

Oh ho

You take me up to the higher ground. . .

I cry in my sleep - cry boy

Cry boy. . . .

You take me up

Oh ho

You take me up to the higher ground. . .

You take me up. oh ho. you take me up to the higher ground. . .
