Love

Love is so hard to find
Love that’s returned in kind
Love brings you peace of mind

I want love
We all want love
We all need love
Love

So if you see your chance, take it
Don’t ever forsake it
Ooh you just can’t fake it
Come with me and make love

Love, love, love
I want love
Love

I want love
We all want love
We all need love
Love

Water Under The Bridge

What’s the point in thinking over
How it could’ve been
When there’s no chance of doing over
All those things again

Would have
Should have
Could have
Might have

Water
Water under the bridge
(x4)

Yes indeed time’s come and gone
History is written
Naught to do but continue
Our future now begins

Would have
Should have
Could have
Might have

Water
Water under the bridge
(x4)

Ooh ooh ooh…

Insignficant

The multitudinous laughter of the sea
Trapped in a violent silence I can’t break
I’m insignificant

I no longer read, I don’t think, & I can’t speak
Trapped in a violent silence I can’t break
I’m insignificant

I’m dazed and I’m drained
Just a shell of myself
Oh oh oh
I’m insignificant
(x2)

When the world is so big
Time stretching out immeasurable
Who am I to say anything
(x2)

Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Insignificant
(x5)

Sinking

The bills are getting paid
And all of them on time
Every day the sun keeps rising
Up into the sky

But every night
There’s a cold, cold stone
Where my heart should be
Its put away
And locked up tight
I’ve thrown away the key

Oh but its hard
Yeah, its so hard
To say what I mean to say
Push it down and block it out
Hope it all just goes away

Who am I to complain?
People got it worse than me
No food to eat, no place to sleep
Living in poverty

I’m just some girl
Who’s got it all
That’s what they like to think
But I’ve just learned
To bail it out
Quick enough not to sink
Oh, I am sinking

Oh and its hard
Yeah its so hard
To trust anyone out there
‘Cause everybody’s hurting too
Too preoccupied to care

Oh lord, oh lord
I am sinking
(x4)

Believe

Looking into the future
Through the eyes of the past
Its hard to know how far you’ll go
Or how long it will last

Its so hard to make commitments
When all you see is change
Nothing worldly is permanent
Our lives, they rearrange

But I’d like to believe
There’s something waiting for me
When I finally arrive at the end of the line
Guess I’ll just have to wait and see

Back when I was younger
I never could have known
I’d be where I am today
Look at how I’ve grown

Staring back at yesterday
The shapes fall into place
Seems the mystery of history
Is easy to retrace

Still I’d like to believe
There’s something waiting for me
When I finally arrive at the end of the line
Guess I’ll just have to wait and see
Oh. Wait and see.

But I’d like to believe
There’s something waiting for me
When I finally arrive at the end of the line
Guess I’ll just have to wait and see
Oh. Wait and see.

Love (7 Day Visa – Brooklyn Afterhours Remix)

Love is so hard to find
Love that’s returned in kind
Love brings you peace of mind

I want love
We all want love
We all need love
Love

Natural Fact Rap:

We all gotta have it
So broke or so established
To never know is tragic
The concept’s elastic
Some never grasp it
Thinking it’s the cash or the gadgets
But it’s too abstract you can’t hoard, or try stash it
Gotta accept it, let it go as a response and an action
The same way you got it, you could lose it
It’s hard to fathom
Still, we choose to abuse then question why the passions shattered
Seems once it’s lost, that its the moment that it really matters

Ooh you just can’t fake it (x4)

Love, love
I want love
Love

Seems once it’s lost, that the moment that it really matters…

I want love (ooh you just can’t fake it)
We all want love (ooh you just can’t fake it)
We all need love (ooh you just can’t fake it)
Love (ooh you just can’t fake it)

Lyrics by Anji Bee & Natural Fact

Love (Soul Whirling Somewhere Remix)

Love is so hard to find
Love that’s returned in kind
Love brings you peace of mind

I want love
We all want love

So if you see your chance, take it
Don’t ever forsake it
Ooh you just can’t fake it
Come with me and make love
Come with me and make love
Brings you peace of mind

I want love
We all want love

Love
Love
Love
Love
Love
