The Life Pursuit |
| What do you do when hope is all but gone? |
| You need a brother to lean on |
| But your brother’s gone |
| Your sister’s in the wrong part of town |
| I took a walk to remember ecstasy |
| It’s not today, not even yesterday |
| Songs of praise all very well |
| Their voices swell |
| They tug at sadness |
| Like love tugging at your sleeve |
| Is it worth the pain |
| To walk into the void again? |
| In your darkest hour he is the tiniest light |
| Light that’s found beyond your present situation |
| And it’s wide and it’s broad, beyond all estimation |
| Is your belly fat, is your man a twat? |
| Do in-growing hairs provide you with strange fascination? |
| The highlight of your day is plucking all the roots away |
| You took a walk to remember ecstasy |
| It’s not today, not even yesterday |
| In your darkest hour he is the tiniest light |
| The smallest of sparks |
| He’s a tinderbox, he’s a flaming torch |
| Pinch your self quite hard, in a place that hurts |
| If it doesn’t work, ask your friend to comply |
| And if they hit the spot |
| You can let yourself cry |
| And when the teardrops stop, I will take you for a drive |
| I’ll explain all I know about the spiritual side |
| Life that’s found beyond your present situation |
| And it’s wide and it’s broad, beyond all estimation |
