The Reason Lyrics - Sol, Vind Och Vatten - Ted Gärdestad

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 everywhere 

Life will be so lonely there 

In the silent Milky Way 

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
