[Verse 1]
Ooh, I have love sweeter than lies
Gave you no reason
Not to decide
Say you are leaving
You've got too much pride
It's not love if you have to hide it

[Chorus]
Oh woe
Who is the man
Who puts waves on the sand
It's the stormkeeper
Stormkeeper
Liven my life
When I need to survive
Is the storm keeping you warm
Keeping you warm

[Verse 2]
Ooh I have cried so many times
But only for things
That never were mine
Heaven is sweet
Love is unkind
Thoughts are twisted inside your mind

[Chorus]
Oh woe
Who is the man
Who puts waves on the sand
It's the stormkeeper
Stormkeeper
Liven my life
When I need to survive
Is the storm keeping you warm
Keeping you warm

[Bridge]
Don't let them tell you
That this love is wrong
Don't let them fool you
That this love can't go on, on...

[Chorus]
Oh woe
Who is the man
Who puts waves on the sand
It's the stormkeeper
Stormkeeper
Liven my life
When I need to survive
It's the stormkeeper
Stormkeeper
Who is the man
Who puts waves on the sand
It's the stormkeeper
Stormkeeper
Liven my life
When I need to survive
Is the storm keeping you warm
Keeping you warm

Culture Club is a New Wave / Pop Band from London England who are known for a string of pop hits during the 1980s. Their second album, Colour By Numbers, sold more than 10 million albums, was ranked the 96th best album of the 1980s by Rolling Stone, and contained their most famous song Karma Chameleon.

Formed in 1981 by lead singer Boy George, bassist Mikey Craig, drummer Jon Moss and guitarist Roy Hay, Culture Club was named after the diversity in ethnicity and backgrounds of it’s members. They were soon after signed to Virgin records, but it wouldn’t be until the press realized Boy George’s androgynous style, before Culture Club would take off as pop hit masters.

Culture Club sold more than 50 million albums worldwide, and had international success with songs such as “Do You Really Want to Hurt Me?”, “Time (Clock of the Heart)” and “I’ll Tumble 4 Ya”.
