Indian giver is an English expression used in North America and Australia, used to describe a person who gives a gift (literal or figurative) and later wants it back, or something equivalent in return.
What an exquisite song - proof positive that less is more. When Linda sings Richard's words, "Tongues talk fire and eyes cry rivers" it's so sad and so beautiful because it's true. May your heart find its home....
Wonderful! And a great song. I love the way that it could relate to anything which has taken central inportance in your life; a lover, a god, or even drugs. It's about anything that makes you feel whole.
I smile and well up at the same time.

Can anyone tell me what 'Indian givers' means?

They're people who give you something expecting twice as much in return.
Great song, isn't it?

Alarming that as I understand it at the time of this Whistle Test performance Linda had infact left him.

Linda is among the best female singers ever in my opinion. In any genre of modern music. What a great vocal, song, and live performance this is!!

ah nothing finer. NO partner came close to Linda to fitting RT's voice/lyrics/music so perfectly.

I think, that is actually, far too good. Shouldn't be allowed.

Tongues talk fire and
Eyes cry rivers
Indian givers
Hearts of stone
Paper ships and
Painted faces
The worlds no place when
Youre on your own
