let it be sung

Jack Johnson

There must be a forecast
That you won't let yourself see
So you keep watching as you're driftin'
Sail away from what you need

Why don't I just give you
Everything you'll take from me
'Cuz nobody owns anything
And everyone is free

Thats why

This ship is goin' down
Desperately I need a sound
A song to sing so we could carry on
Just let it be sung so we could carry on

God fearing people at the bottom of the sea
Walkin' without lanterns let a stone skip over thee
Hi ho away as in the sea
Hi ho be gone lets just dance
Waltz above the ocean

This ship is goin' down
Desperately I need a sound
A song to sing so we could carry on
Just let it be sung so we might carry on
Let it be sung so we
Let it be sung so we could carry on

I've heard all of the stories
And in them I've put my trust
You gotta touch the botton before you can come back up
And I know what your heart is telling you
'Cuz my hearts telling me the same thing too

This ship is goin' down
Desperately I need a sound
A song to sing so we can carry on
Just let it be sung so we might carry on
Let it be sung so we
Let it be sung so we can carry on
