For the Life of Me - Prince Tui Teka

For the Life of Me Lyrics

How can there be a song without the music,
How can there be a wave without the sea,
The lighting needs the thunder as a speaking voice, oh yeah
And I must have you for the life of me
How can there be a baby with no crying,
a future with no past can never be
A humming bird can't live unless it's free to fly, oh yeah
And I must have you for the life of me
I know that sunshine follows rain,
I know that pleasure follows pain
And I know that I must have you somehow
Every ship waits for the crew,
and every rose waits for the dew
but I need you right now
How can there be an end with no beginning
so run to me I'm waiting helplessly
And break these shackles of impatience make me live
For I must have you for the life of me
