Tom Frager Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A rainy day starts
And the only one thing
I wanna do is relax
But I got to be another man
And I feel better
If I make it to the work, make it to the work
The world is going to be that way
I know you really don't know, you really don't care
You're not a Babylon girl
I'll catch your smile if I could
Cuz' your love is so good, your love is so good
Give me that love
Give me that love
Give me that love
Give me that love
Give me that love
Give me that love
Give me that love
Give me that love
Give me that love
Give me that love
Give me that love
Give me that love
My life is what I make of it
Everyday you're part of that
Now I saw you last week
Would you even recognize me
If I let you know that we
Pass each other in the street, each other in the street
How could I ever live
Without a love I wanna bring
In the valleys of my dreams
The valleys of my dreams
But I keep on walking, yeah
(I keep on walking)
Yes, I keep on walking, girl
(I keep on walking)
Tomorrow them said
The world is going to be that way
I know you really don't know, you really don't care
You're not a Babylon girl
I'll catch your smile if I could
Cuz' your love is so good, your love is so good
Give me that love
Give me that love
Give me that love
Give me that love
Give me that love
Give me that love
Give me that love
Give me that love
Give me that love

The lyrics of Tom Frager's song "Give Me That Love" are about the singer's desire for love, which he believes is the key to his happiness. He wakes up on a rainy day and feels the urge to relax, but he has to go to work. He thinks about how the world can be cruel and uncaring, but he tries to focus on the positive things in his life, such as the love he seeks from the woman he is interested in.
The singer is afraid he might not be recognized by the woman he has seen before because they had only passed each other in the street. He wants her to smile at him, and he wants her to give him the love he craves. He wants love to be his companion in the valleys of his dreams, a metaphor for the ups and downs of his life.
In the chorus, the singer repeatedly asks for love, which he believes will help him keep walking through life's difficulties. He knows that love is his strength, and he wants it more than anything else. The song's upbeat melody and Tom Frager's soulful voice make it a delight to listen to.

Encore un jour gris,
J'ai pas l'attitude à la volonté,
Allongé sur mon lit,
Je sais qu'il faut que je songe à me lever.
Mais moi j'écoute la pluie,
Et je regarde les gens se dépêcher,
J't'attendrai toute la vie,
S'il le fallait, s'il le fallait.
That love
Give me that love
Give me that love
Give me that love
Give me that love
Give me that love
Vas par-là, dis pas ci, fais pas ça,
J'ai pas pu quand j'l'ai dis pourtant j'l'ai tenté mille fois,
Tenté l'air de la ville,
Le quotidien qui défile,
Moi j'respire quand s'dessine,
Enfin ma sweet Caraïbes,
Alors je prends l'instant qui passe,
Et le temps de le voir qui trace,
Sans jamais baisser les bras, jamais baisser les bras, jamais.
Keep on working yeah,
I keep on working.
Mais moi j'écoute la pluie,
Et je regarde les gens se dépêcher,
J't'attendrai toute la vie,
S'il le fallait, s'il le fallait.
That love
Give me that love
Give me that love
Give me that love
Give me that love
Give me that love

Keep on working yeah,
I keep on working.
Mais moi j'écoute la pluie,
Et je regarde les gens se dépêcher,
J't'attendrai toute la vie,
S'il le fallait, s'il le fallait.

Give me that love
Give me that love
Give me that love
