Need help for a friend.

Not necessarily new wave, has a pop/rock ballad sound, am told it was released circa 1985.

Here are the lyrics:

Life's a lonely stage
The actors play their parts
Tonight will be the same
Tonight there'll be some heavy parts

I'll give you anything
I'll give you anything
I'll give you anything
If you give to me

It's no use trying to find
I can't wait around tonight
Another winter may be cold (???..Not sure of this phrase)
Its still summer in my fickle mind

Ohhh yeah now
I give you anything
If you give to me
I give you anything
You mean the world to me
yeah

How can I (how can I) I can't carry on now
Haven't I (haven't I) I don't feel so strong now
How can I How can I How in the world can I
Carry on

How can I (how can I) I can't carry on now
Haven't I (haven't I) I don't feel so strong now
How can I How can I How in the world can I?
Oh I can't carry on

I give you anything
I give you anything anything
I give you anything
If you give
If you give
If you give to me

Is this Dramarama?[?]

by **romanticide** » Wed Jan 19, 2005 2:18 pm

No, although the Dramarama song is amazing...

The lyrics to Dramarama's "Anything Anything (I'll Give You)" are below:

Oh, gee, what is it tonight?
At least just tell me what the hell is wrong,
Do you want to eat, do you want to sleep, do you want to drown?
Just settle down, settle down, settle down...
I'll give you candy, give you diamonds, give you pearls,
I gave you anything you want, hundred dollar bills,
I'll even let you watch the shows do you want to see,
Just marry me, marry me, marry me...

I'm so sick of you tonight,
You never stay awake when I get home,
Is something wrong with me, something wrong with you?
I really wish I knew, wish I knew, wish I knew...
I'll give you candy, give you diamonds, give you pearls,
Give you anything you want, hundred dollar bills,
I even let you watch the shows you want to see,
Because you married me, married me, married me...

When I was young I played the game,
Where love and happiness were the same,
Now I'm older and I don't play,
I found out the hardest way,
Oh I can't wasted, she got mad, called me names as she called herdog,
He got crazy and I did too, wondered what I did to you.
I gave you candy, give you diamonds, give you pearls,
Give you anything you want, hundred dollar bills,
I even let you hear the songs I want to sing,
I'll give you anything, anything, anything...
I'll give you anything, anything, anything...

Been almost three years. Give it one more try.

The song is obviously "I'd Give You Anything" by Rodway. Jeeze, I can't believe nobody knew this.

Just kidding, I was bored so I googled it[:D]. But that is the song.

Any chance you upload a clip of the song? The lyrics are somehow familiar to me but I can't think of any band now so listening to the song would be of great help.
