Find A Way

Elliott Yamin · Elliott Yamin [2007]

A child is born, not knowing a thing

The pride and joy of Mama's eyes.

A teenage boy knows next to nothing,

And yet he's called away to kill or die.



The life we live, for some, is easy

And most of us just make it by.

My mother works to hard to feed me.

It's a wonder, how she never lost her mind.



The rain is falling from the sky.

It's getting harder to stay dry.

They say that pride goes before a fall.

Heaven, help us all,

If love don't find a way.



I turned the news on just this morning

Proclaiming all things justified

If war is one side of the story

Does it make sense for us to choose a side?



And when the end comes, God, forgive me

For everything I've said and done

If living is the price to be free

Then I wish it was the same for everyone.



The rain is falling from the sky.

It's getting harder to stay dry.

They say that pride goes before a fall.

Heaven, help us all,

If love don't find a way.



Oooh, doo doo doo doo dweedoo dwim do daahh da.

Oh, we've got to find a way (oooh)

For everyone.

(Ohh, oooh ohh)



They say that pride goes before a fall.

Heaven, help us all, if love don't find a way.

They say that pride goes before a fall.

Heaven, help us all, if love don't find a way.



Oh yeah, bada baa baa, ba da da daa...
