I asked if it was Big Country Dexter. I'm assuming not?

From your fathers hand that always felt like a fist
Reaching out to make you pay

Wake me up inside
Call my name and save me from the dark
Bid my blood to run
Before I come undone
Save me from the nothing I've become

Oí! You've changed your name too!!

CoffeeBeansGalore · 17/06/2021 20:21

Evening all

With a kiss you can strip me defenseless
With a touch I completely lose control
All that's left of my strength is a memory
Whoa...

When you can fall for chains of silver you can fall for chains of gold
You can fall for pretty strangers and the promises they hold

And do they know
The places where we go
When we're grey and old
'Cause I have been told

Everybody here is outta sight
They don't bark and they don't bite
They keep things loose, they keep things light

Originally 70s but 90s well known version

I've been meaning to tell you
I've got this feelin' that won't subside
I look at you and I fantasize
You're mine tonight

Everybody needs a little time away
I heard her say
From each other
Even lovers need a holiday
