Jack Johnson Let It Be Sung lyrics

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?
'Cause nobody owns anything
And everyone is free
That's 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 let's 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 bottom before you can come back up
And I know what your heart is telling you
'Cause my hearts telling me the same thing too

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
