You Take Me Up lyrics

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

Looking for reasons (Day in, day out)
Trying too hard (He's trying too hard)
Moving in circles (Too hard, too hard)
Don't get very far (Don't get very far)
Should I ask you 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
You take me up to the higher ground
You take me up, so high
Now I never wanna 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 hard, too hard)
Cos this love never dies (Love never dies)
I believe in today (Believe boy, believe boy)
Well it's better that way when 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
You take me up to the higher ground
You take me up, so high
Now I never wanna come back down

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

You take me up, oh
You take me up to the higher ground
You take me up, so high
Now I never wanna come back down
You take me up, oh
You take me up to a higher ground
You take me up, so high
Now I never wanna come back down, wooh
