Thank the Beatles


My skin is hot

stranded

becoming something im not

 

no one in sight

loosing my might

loosing my fight

 

lost

 

my mother's voice

soft and sweet

telling me love is all I need to keep

 

All you need is love

 

strength travels to my heart

I now know where to start

 

I forgave that day,

that day I sailed away,

on that island where I would not stay

 

Love

it was all I needed

to find me again
