Tonight I find it hard to sleep Each sound and squeak I hear Keeps me staring at the ceiling
Oh it's dark as night outside And I can't stand The quiet that it brings me
And I've got too much on my mind I think it's time to take a drive And leave it all behind
I've got a song that's halfway there I think it needs the ocean air I'm gonna grab my guitar And get in my car
Oh, I need some understanding I need a little love Gonna speed down to the Oceanside In a race with the stars above
With my guitar in hand And toes touching the sand I can see the sun is coming in
Colors fill and crack the sky With purple, silver, and golden light Drawing the day from night
On the shoreline a fisherman With bait on his line and a rod in his hand Is ready to greet the day
He turns around to notice me And the two of us are patiently Waiting for the sun's rays
Oh, I just need some understanding And a little love And somehow I am thinking now I can get what I've been dreaming of
But this fisherman is closing in I think he could be crazy He says: "Would you ride with me?" "Oh, I could use the company" "I've got a fish to catch and you have got a song to sing"
His eyes were anchors as the boat would sway What would you like to say? You have my attention I see you came out here to write your song But you don't have too long So show me what you're workin' with I'd like to give you just a little somethin' And you may think it's nothing on first listen In the time it takes for you to make love You can break love Waste love And throw it all away
But all you need is faith And hope will bring a brighter day And every time that you love Let it lift someone else up
If someone tries to burn you Give him your hand and turn and pick him up When he's all alone
Now if you find yourself getting frustrated Try not to get too jaded or You could go insane, like me
I tell you man you must be crazy Or am I always lazy when it comes to love? With every failure and turning tide I toss the boomerang But Ah, it never comes back to me
Have some faith you say And hope will find it's way? Well I doubt what you're sure of When it seems to me the greatest of these is love But it's so hard to love
Well, we were sitting on his boat Our backs to each other He was giving me a little time And all that he said Was hurting my head Wonderin' how to leave the selfishness behind
All that I could say is "it's so hard to love... the way that you want me to"
I stepped off the boat and thanked the man Not sure what I was thankful for When I turned back around to see him again He was already gone
Walking back from the water to my guitar That's when the light came on I knew what he was talking 'bout I know how to finish my song
Oh, I just need some understanding, I need a little love And I want to sing my song to somebody who doubts what they're made of
Oh, we all need some understanding We all need love!
