Thing for You Lyrics by Supertramp

Free as a Bird

1987

Oh Lordy I got a feelin' so cold
You know the mornin' it ain't too good for my soul
I've been workin' in some faraway place
I got to thinkin' about your sweet smilin' face

I got a thing for you
If you want me to
I'm gonna change all my ways
I'm gonna get off the road
I'm gonna lighten my load
I got a thing for you

Can you feel it too?
Think I better slow down
All my wandering's done
I found my place in the sun

Ah woman, why d'you treat me this way
You don't believe a single word that I say
But it's the truth now
You know I'll be home for good
So what's with you now
I thought that you understood

I got a thing for you
If you want me to
I'm gonna change all my ways
I'm gonna get off the road
I'm gonna lighten my load

There ain't a woman alive could ever come close to you
I won't know how to survive, so don't you fade from my view
You say I'm putting you on and soon I'll be on my way
Well woman you're wrong and that is all I can say
All I can say

I got a thing for you
If you want me to
I'm gonna change all my ways
I'm gonna get off the road
I'm gonna lighten my load
I got a thing for you

Can you feel it too?
Think I better slow down
All my wandering's done
I found my place in the sun
I got a thing for you
If you want me to
I'm gonna change all my ways...
