Take away my inhibitions

Take away my solitude


Fire me up with your resistance


Put me in the mood

Storm the walls around this prison

Leave the inmates Free the guards

Deal me up another future


From some brand new deck of cards

Take the chip off of my shoulder


Smooth out all the lines



Take me out among the rustling pines



Till it Shines

Still if we can make the effort

If we take the time

Maybe we can leave this much behind

Till it shines
Bob Seger, "Till it Shines", Stranger in Town, Capitol Records, 1978


And in the end.....

The love you take...

is equal to

the love

you make
The Beatles, "The End," Abbey Road, Apple Records, 1969
