Labour of Love

Original Composition by Gerry Dempsey
Performed by Gerry, Laurie and Peter Dempsey
6 September 2009

Turn to your Labour of love.
When the weight of the world is just too much
To answer the questions of life, and such,
And you're feeling lost and out of touch,
Turn to your labour of love.

When you don't know what it's all about,
And all you've got to offer is doubt
Looking inward, opting out
Turn to your labour of love.

When the future's looking rough
And you decide you've had enough
And to love your neighbour's getting tough,
Turn to your labour of love.
Change your behaviour,
And turn to your labour of love.

When you cannot find a better way,
And discover your heros have feet of clay,
And the only answer is -- hard to say.
Turn to your labour of love.

Break....

When you're feeling lost and out of touch
Turn to your labour.
Change your behaviour,
And turn to your labour of love.

Thanks Tom. This is one of a couple I wrote where the bassline allows the bass player to fall asleep.

Could you post the lyrics in the info section? Might help people whose first language is not English.
