UB40
Tell Me Is It True
Guns in the Ghetto
1997

Lyrics :

Tenderly she smiles
Forgiving my mistakes
Getting her to love me
Was my biggest break
Every place I go, she's inside of me
Giving up her love unconditionally

She shines the sun
She pours the rain
She touches me in places that I can't explain
She's got a powerful hold on me
The kind of hold from which I'd never struggle free

Tell me what you know
Tell me is it true
Do you really love me just like I love you
Everything I say
Everything I do
It's purely cos' I'm aiming to get hold of you

People tell her she could do better than me
She wouldn't necessarily agree
We've got a thing going on you see
The two of us together for eternity

Tenderly she smiles
Forgiving my mistakes
Getting her to love me
Was my biggest break
Every place I go, she's inside of me
Giving up her love unconditionally

Tenderly she smiles
Forgiving my mistakes
Getting her to love me
Was my biggest break
Every place I go, she's inside of me
Giving up her love unconditionally

She shines the sun
She pours the rain
She touches me in places that I can't explain
She's got a powerful hold on me
The kind of hold from which I'd never struggle free

Tell me what you know
Tell me is it true
Do you really love me just like I love you
Everything I say
Everything I do
It's purely cos' I'm aiming to get hold of you

People tell her she could do better than me
She wouldn't necessarily agree
We've got a thing going on you see
The two of us together for eternity

Tenderly she smiles
Forgiving my mistakes
Getting her to love me
Was my biggest break
Every place I go, she's inside of me
Giving up her love unconditionally

OK

[Namikagekun]

@TheDarwiniser Indeed.

@Namikagekun

Its like claiming anything from Scotland is all about whiskey.

Or anything to do with the blues is all about bourbon.

[TheDarwiniser]

@Namikagekun

yeah i think to consider that a particular drug is representative of a music style is a little ignorant.

one singer doesnt own a music style.

nor does his drug of choice.

a little presumptuous frankly.

[Pat2Panik11]

Original to John clarke !!!

@LThunders I'm also left handed but I play my guitar right handed?...dont think I could ever play a left hander. Parents bought me a right hand guuitar when I was eight and had lessons till I was 16 so I think i'll always play right handed......Top song tho' me thinks!

[LThunders]

It's a silly observation but I've noticed that both Campbell brothers are left handed and it's a rare case... Mark and David Knopfler also are left handed, but they play right handed guitars.
