All I Need — текст песни (Michael McDonald)

(michael mcdonald/tommy sims)



Like a river runnin to the sea

There must be a reason for all these shattered dreams

Starts with our believing and ends with our backs against the walls

If Im not careful I might convince myself

This is the way its always gonna be

Spend my whole life wonderin just what it means to survive



So I wonder, am I strong enough?

Do I have the strength I need to carry on?

All Im askin for is the path thats gonna lead me home



Chorus:

All I need is a shinin light an open door

Im askin for nothin more than a little hope



Another mornin strange as it seems

Here once again with all these broken things

That once hung in the balance between the extremes of my life

With the will of a runaway train

I took my chances time and time again

Leaving nothin but wreckage and pain behind



Chorus:

All I need (is) just one answer Im lookin for

Im askin for nothin more



Than a light in the window

Enough that I might see

A voice to call my name

A prayer to comfort me
