Thompson Twins - You Take Me Up

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. . .
