Ted Gärdestad - The Reason lyrics

Try now, to understand Sometimes we all need a helping hand So don't cry now behind your door Asking the stars what we're living for I will show you How you Get to the shelter of peace Where our minds are at ease And believe me Love is the reason we're here Smile now, wipe off your tears It's only human to show your fears So don't hide now your innocence Lean on my shoulder with confidence I'll console you Hold you 'til all your agony's gone And I'm sure that you're strong So believe me Love is the reason we're here Take me along for a cosmic trip Leave the earth on a flying ship Empty skies are every where Life will be so lonely here In the silent Milkyway Where the trees can't grow And children can't play Tell me who's gonna stay You say there is a better place Than this earth we walk and the sky we face Must be more than the atmosphere Tell me why we're stranded here On this planet close to Mars Where the shining stars Decide who we are Hear me, I wish to say Sometimes our needs are a touch away So don't fear me, I've also cried I know how it feals to be pushed aside You must trust me Touch me There is no cause for your doubts What this world is about And believe me Love is the reason we're here
