Lyrics
The Meaning Of It All Craig Pinkney
Sometimes you get sad
But that's ok for the soul
But don't you stay down there for long
Fear will take you in it's hold
The rotto ferry saw us out of school
The good ship merry and a jug of wine
But now the party's over
What's the meaning of it all
Don't judge yourself so harshly
Everyone must have their faults
Look for the answer all you'll find
Are six more questions for your troubled mind
You want someone to love you
But they push you away
The rocking' and the reel in'
What's the meaning of it all
So grow strong and try to grow wise
No matter how strong you are you'll be surprised
Just how far there is to fall
Some never return from the black hole
You might find the answer
In following your god
Me I'm just a dreamer
What's the meaning of it all
