Michael Franks - When I Give My Love To You Lyrics






Whenever I am lost at sea
I remember you are here with me
You surrender to the fantasy
When I give my love to you
Running from the hurricane
Helter-skelter in the wind and rain
I find shelter, I find peace again
When I give my love to you
When I give my love to you

I can feel the downtime ending
And I ain't pretending
Words can simply not reveal
The degree of ecstasy
Only you can make me feel
When you give your love to me
Lover, when the world's too square
I discover you are always there
And no other lover can compare
When I give my love to you

    LYRICS:
    Whenever I am lost at sea
    I remember you are here with me
    You surrender to the fantasy
    When I give my love to you
    Running from the hurricane
    Helter-skelter in the wind and rain
    I find shelter, I find peace again
    When I give my love to you
    When I give my love to you

    I can feel the downtime ending
    And I ain't pretending
    Words can simply not reveal
    The degree of ecstasy
    Only you can make me feel
    When you give your love to me
    Lover, when the world's too square
    I discover you are always there
    And no other lover can compare
    When I give my love to you
