The Verb "To Love" from Faithful. Subscribe, like and share for more Todd pls.
LYRICS:
Some people tell me that love is a feeling
Or a possession
Somehow it seems so cold
And when they say love is sweet
Does it mean that you eat it?
Maybe you drink it
Does it fill up an empty hole?
I'm lookin' for a love and I may not find it
You know it doesn't mean a thing
Without some action behind it
Please come home
I can hear them calling
Please come home
Please don't leave us all alone
Your mama and your papa are crying all alone
You better let it magnetize, learn to sacrifice
'Til we get the true version of
The meaning of the verb 'To Love'
What does it mean to love?
And when somebody needs love
Do they spend some money?
Say something funny
Ask for some tenderness?
And when you want to touch of love
Do you lie on your back?
Stand on your head
How do you feel it best?
I'm looking for a love with no strings attached
To take me like I am, that's the only catch
Please come home
I can hear them calling
Please come home
Please don't leave us all alone
Your wife and your lover are crying all alone
You better let it magnetize, learn to sacrifice
'Til we learn the true version of
The meaning of the verb 'To Love'
Does it mean any more
The more you talk about it
Is it anymore real
If you jump around and shout it
I'm sick and tired of hearing
'bout everyone without it and
Too much talkin' sends me walkin'
Night is falling and everybody's calling for love
Everybody's lookin' for their one and only
It's only just a game 'cause they're scared to be lonely
Please come home
I can hear them calling
Please come home
Please don't leave us all alone
Your brothers and your sisters are crying all alone
You got let it magnetize, learn to sacrifice
'Til we get the true version of
The meaning of the verb 'To Love'
What does it mean to love?

Todd and his backup bands were always big medicine here in Cleveland, OH. To us oldsters, that still holds true. The lyrics, vocals, the harp, and the keys are incredible. Talk about "blue-eyed soul" -- this one's got a truck full! Todd is just incredible! I dedicate this amazing tune to clear/starry nights and knowing that we are loved -- more than we could ever know.

[@lindawarwick8643]

This song makes me cry -so beautiful

[@markreichenbach4604]

Me, too. Every damn time. The Back to the Bars version is damn near perfection.

[@ChefClary60]

It’s on my list to be played when I die. May be morbid but I’m 62 and not in good health. I want people to remember me for being a loving person. This song sums it up

[@keithparker1346]

The cascading piano bit around 4 minutes in is great

[@dannyadamson5580]

I think that Faithfull proved to everyone how talented Todd is with his take on the covers and the wonderful original songs like this one

[@darrenbethell7451]

What a legend this guy is

[@edherrick2]

Song writer and wordsmith Todd.

[@1964MrRoland]

[@joelhoulette3244]

Agree. The lyrics are incredible.

[@frankholstein4499]

Frank Holstein Fo sho! Frankly, I believe one can meet their soul viz Todd’s voice alone. True wizardry.

[@carolfan4466]

Surprised not more people have covered this song.

[@death2pc]

Thank goodness no one has, they'd destroy it.........

[@carolfan4466]

[@kevinkline7242]

Not many people have covered the Mona Lisa for the same reason.

[@lindawarwick8643]

WOW Todd was/is A WIZARD A TRUE STAR. Sooooooo underated and perhaps one of the most beautiful and long range voices in rock history. I miss the 70’s sooooo much ! I Transport myself back by closing my eyes and remembering as tears roll down my face 😢Thanks for the wonderful memories TODD

[@stevious7278]

[@winstonsizemore2385]

Typo on lyrics

[@keithparker1346]

Purple Rain is almost a variation of this

[@fabienlamour3644]

I was so disappointed when i bought this album thinking it was like Utopia was. Ôoooh no. Boring to the bone.

[@keithparker1346]

Imo the album overall isn't that great and is actually weak but this song is great

[@DAVEBLISS2007]

The quality of Todd’s music will vary from album to album, but overall it is all brilliant stuff.
