Give me a song Lyrics

Put me behind a plow.
Give me a problem to work out.
Give me reason to go forward, or a horizon to go toward.
Give me a race that I can win, at least a direction to run in.
Show me just one thing black or white, even an ending that's in sight.

Give me a song that I can sing, one that's got an honest ring, One that burns hot in my veins, a song that will ease some pain.

I want to know truth.
I want to walk in it first.
Let me know purpose when I wake, or give me a heart that will not break.
Give me a strong drink when I thirst, my lover's arms when I'm at my worst.
This one thing is all I ask.
This one thing is all I ask: Time. Driving through the driving rain, like a knife in the dark I hear my name from a passing train.
?Come away, come away.?

Give me a song that I can sing, one that's got an honest ring, One that burns hot in my veins, a song that will ease some pain.
