Hi! Would someone please complete the missing lyrics ( represented
by a XXX in the text below ) to this obscure mid-80's song called
"Strong As I Am" by The Prime Movers, a band I believe was/is
composed of L.A. session men (?). The song was featured in the
also mid-80's film "Manhunter". I would appreciate knowing the
author of the song too, plus any additional info on The Prime
Movers ( Where from? Still together? Any albums? Where found? ).

Thanks,
- Keith

STRONG AS I AM by The Prime Movers

Father, look in my eyes
See me as I really am
You made me, now take me...

Tell me how it feels now
Behold, your flesh has come of age
Save me, you break me...

CHORUS :
Strong as I am, there's something 'bout this thing that scares me
Strong as I am, there's something 'bout this thing that dares me
Strong as I am, there's something 'bout this thing that haunts me
Strong as I am, there's something 'bout this thing that taunts me...

Mother, let me hear you
XXX XXX XXX XXX
Release it, it kills me...

XXX XXX XXX XXX
The love you would not share
XXX XXX XXX XXX...

REPEAT CHORUS...

XXX XXX XXX XXX
XXX XXX will you leave if I say no?...

strong as I am, strong as I am...

I think the film's credits actually listed the band name as
"Prime Mover". I'd been wondering about them myself for some
time.

Lots of good Shriekback on that soundtrack, don't you think?
