Sometimes life feels an ocean, and far too cold to mention. Though you raise a great commotion - still no-one you attention There's no on the horizon, when the gather near, you watch your of surviving scuppered - (sink, disappear),
All I need, all you need, all we need, is something to to. (Watch your chances disappear when the shark-fins near), All I need, all you need, all we need, is to cling to. As 'fair-weather-friends' stand waving, from the comfort of yacht, (it's how when you needed saving they forgot). The countless times you've stopped sinking, fought to keep lives afloat, and them upwards, (without thinking). to the safety of boat.
AIl I need, all you need, all we need, is something to to (Fight to keep your life afloat - far from the of your boat) All I need, all you need, all we need, is to cling to
So and numb - your limbs now weaken and you slowly start to I not admit I'm beaten, let these drag me under? a peace and calm descending, fears, and cares, and crying. Knowing that life is ending, yourself to dying.
Then as if out of nowhere. (and just when you expected). a single piece of driftwood - by some unseen force directed It's a gift often brings you. you thought all hope long gone. sometimes a single dream to to. gives you strength to on.
It the wisest words that I know, (three some dead scholar wrote) are these:- "Dum spiro spero" "WHILE I BREATHE I HOPE".
All I need. all you need, all we need, is something to to, (The wisest words man ever wrote are simply "While I I hope"). All I need, all you need, all we need, is something to to.
