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
