You Got The Love, a disco gospel track from the 1980’s, has gone through a few remixes and covers. I just wanted to share a version that strikes a chord with me. The XX has reworked and added a heavy bass to the version sung by Florence & the Machine. Enjoy.
Lyrics:
Sometimes I feel like throwing my hands up in the air
I know I can count on you
Sometimes I feel like saying “Lord I just don’t care”
But you’ve got the love I need to see me through
Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough
And things go wrong no matter what I do
Now and then it seems that life is just too much
But you’ve got the love I need to see me through
When food is gone you are my daily meal
When friends are gone I know my savior’s love is real
You know it’s real
You got the love
You got the love
You got the love
You got the love
You got the love
You got the love
You know it’s real
You know I know
(repeat)
I know I can count on you
Sometimes I feel like saying “Lord I just don’t care”
But you’ve got the love I need to see me through
Sooner or later in life the things you love you lose
You’ve got the love I need to see me through
You got the love
You got the love
You got the love
You got the love
You got the love
You got the love
You know it’s real
You know I know
(repeat)
