[Verse 1: Gary]
You bring me right back down to the earth from the promised land
We’re getting close to the center of the earth with an honest plan
You’ll never be your mother or your father, do you understand?
Do you understand?

[Pre-Chorus: All]
We don’t have too much time here
And time, it travels far too fast
We’re not too far, we’re too near
Before they take it from our hands

[Chorus: All]
Why don’t you teach your heart to feel
And give you love love
Give you love love
Give it all away
Why don’t you teach your heart to talk
And give you love love
Give you love love
Give me give me what I need

[Verse 2: Mark]
We’ll take you right back down to the earth from the mother land
This is a first class journey from the gods to the Son of Man
You’re at the gates of human evolution, don’t you understand?
Why don’t you understand?
[Gary]
Understand

[Pre-Chorus: All]
We don’t have too much time here
And time, it travels far too fast
We’re not too far, we’re too near
Before they take it from our hands

[Chorus: All]
Why don’t you teach your heart to feel
And give you love love
Give you love love
Give it all away
Why don’t you teach your heart to talk
And give you love love
Give you love love
Give it all away
Why don’t you teach your heart to feel
And give you love love
Give you love love
Give it all away
Why don’t you teach your heart to talk
And give you love love
Give you love love
Give me give me what I need

[Pre-Chorus: All]
We don’t have too much time here
And time, it travels far too fast
We’re not too far, we’re too near
Before they take it from our hands

[Chorus: All]
Why don’t you teach your heart to feel
And give you love love
Give you love love
Give it all away
Why don’t you teach your heart to talk
And give you love love
Give you love love
Give it all away
Why don’t you teach your heart to feel
And give you love love
Give you love love
Give it all away
Why don’t you teach your heart to talk
And give you love love
Give you love love
Give me give me what I need

One of Britain’s most successful boy bands, Take That are an English pop group from Manchester, formed in 1990. The group currently consists of Gary Barlow, Howard Donald, and Mark Owen. The original line-up also featured Jason Orange and Robbie Williams.

Back in the 90s, they achieved unparalleled success, recording three albums which topped the UK Everything Changes and Nobody Else and Greatest Hits. Some of their biggest hits from then include “Back for Good”, “Pray”, “Everything Changes”, “A Million Love Songs” as well as covers of “Relight My Fire” by Dan Hartman and “It Only Takes a Minute” by Tavares.

Their popularity was unsurpassed in Britain. But tensions started growing and Robbie Williams left the band in 1995. The group disbanded the following year after the four remaining members completed their world tour.
