We will still need a song

by Hawksley Workman

Baby
You're drunk and acting tough
I know you're sad
You're not the only one who feels like that now

And maybe anger is your only choice
But maybe heart and fist and human voice
Might be the better way
Be the way

Cause we, we will still need a song
To carry our love away
To carry it away
We will still need a song
To carry our heart away
To carry them away

Don't let another tear be in your eyes
We can die in peace knowing we tried
To change our own ways

The poets let a generation down
And modern music should be a healing sound
It's the only way
Only way

Cause we, we will still need a song
To carry our love away
To carry it away
We will still need a song
To dance on our wedding day
To carry it away

And we will still need a song
We will still need
To carry a song
To carry a song
To carry a song

And we, we will still need a song
To carry our heart away
To carry it away
We will still need a song
To dance on our wedding day
To carry it away
