MIKEL RAPOSO BAUTISTA

David Sylvian

For the love of life

And slowly, you come to realize
It’s all as it should be
You can only do so much

If you’re game enough
You could place your trust in me

For the love of life
There’s a trade off
We could lose it all
But we’ll go down fighting

(full version continues below)

And what of the children?
Surely they can’t be blamed
For our mistakes?

And slowly I’ve come to realize
It’s all as it should be

That hiding space
A lonely place

How can the right thing be so wrong?
I’ve found mistakes
Where they don’t belong

For the love of life
We’ll defeat this
They may tear us down
But we’ll go down fighting
