For The Life Of Me

Dick Curless


How can there be a song without the music
How can there be a wave without the sea
The lightning needs a thunder as a speaking voice
And I must have you for the life of me

How can there be a baby with no crying
A future with no past can never be
A humming bird can't live unless it's free to fly
And I must have you for the life of me

I know that sunshine follows rain I know that pleasure follows pain
And I know that I must have you somehow
Every ship waits for the crue and every rose waits for the dew
And I need you right now

How can there be an end with no beginning
So run to me I'm waiting helplessly
And break these shackles of impatience make me live
For I must have you for the life of me
