I've been spitting in the wind

I chance a foolish grin

and dribbled on my chin

Now the ground shifts beneath my feet

The faces that I greet never know my name



Just give me something

I'll take nothing

Just give me something

I'll take nothing



Now the drought is crippled by the rain

That hammers on my pain

We lose ourselves again

But all we need

Is to find a place to look

Our worm is on the hook

A love which dangles free

Lets watch it swim

Against the water's flow

In doubt the courage grows

With no guarantee



Just give me something

I'll take nothing

Just give me something

I'll take nothing



And so it goes

The moral to this tale

As tortoise catches the snail

A strong heart will prevail



It keeps on pumping

It still needs something

Just give me something

I'll take nothing

Just give it something

To keep it pumping

And I'll take nothing

Just give me something
