You Take Me Up - Thompson Twins

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
