Human Beings

I'll go down, go down

To the water slow

Where the songs of hope

Play in stereo

Sunrise sunrise

As it's sinking in

Feel like giving in

When the living's grim

Life has a way of getting you down

But you can't stop now there's a journey to find

And you need to be strong need to carry on

Or the feeling inside won't be there very long

You're a human being

Human beings

You need love to believe in

So hold on to that feeling

I'll hold onto you

As I'm floating out

A buoy in the blue

A beacon in the shroud

And if I let you go

Under flights of geese

Would that light still glow?

Sea up to my knees

Love is a sting that you'll never heal

But you know when it's good and you know when it's real

And the need to be found or to find a friend

If you don't have it now then it's just round the bend

You're a human being

Human beings

You need love to believe in

So hold on to that feeling

I've been in too deep

I've been underneath

Now I'm in your eyes

They're an emerald sea

I am alive and my love is beside me

I see all the ways that this love can provide me

With hope for a future not sitting alone

And a reason to stand up and answer the phone

I'm a human being

Human being

I need love to believe in

So I'll hold on to that feeling
