Ted grdestad lyrics wanna live-got to give lyrics

When our love was new

you were all i had

and i died for you

when the nights were bad

like a mountain stream

at the break of dawn

and the primal scream

when a child is born

wanna live

got to give





I lost my youth

and my confidence

when i fought for truth

with my innocence

like the ocean waves

when the sea gives birth

and the seeds of grain

grow in mother earth

wanna live

got to give

wanna live





Across the universe

pain is nothing new

still its getting worse

Oh, if Im losing you

so please dont go

love me once again

before my time is out

pour a little rain

Oh, in this time of drought

and please dont go





When our love was deep

there were times i cried

when i went to sleep

with your love inside

and the universe above





Wanna live

got so much to give

wanna live
