Lyric Love Thing

I need something, I need some sweet thing
I need something to help me get on, help me get on by
Love thing

Sometimes I feel like I ve been trapped in a container
Pushed through a strainer, but I ain t no complainer
Think I m going crazy, there, now I m insaner
What could be plainer, it s a no-brainer

The truth is always wherever you find it
Throw back the curtain, see what s behind it
Look hard at life and the ties that bind it
Day after day we must be reminded

Everything I had is gone, it s so dark it must be dawn
Where s that reason to go, reason to go on and on

Give what you ain t got to give, lord have mercy on me
Drinkin up blood and sweat and tears, I ain t afraid to ask
Give it to me love thing, well being

Why do I always look down when I want to look up
Why do I shake somebody down when I m feelin shook up
Why do I wander around when I want to hook up
Why am I puttin it down when I wanna pick up

One of these days I m gonna make my decision
And act upon it while I still got volition
But I ve got so many ideas in collision,
It makes it hard to be a man with a mission

I need something, I need some sweet thing
I need something to help me get on, help me get on by
I need something to clear my head
I need something to warm my bed
I need something, some sweet thing
Everything I had is gone, it s so dark it must be dawn
Where s that reason to go, reason to go on and on

Tell me lies, I know the truth but tell me lies
Just like a breath of fresh air blowin through my lonely spirit
Love thing, well being
Love thing
