"Let It Be Sung" lyrics

There must be a forecast that you won't let yourself see
So you keep watching as you're drifting, 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

And that's why this ship is going down
Desperately, I need a sound
A song to sing so we can carry on
Just let it be sung so we can carry on

God fearing people at the bottom of the sea
Walking without lanterns, let a stone skip over thee
Hi-ho away as in the sea
Hi-ho be gone
So let's just dance
We'll waltz above the ocean

And that's why this ship is going down
Desperately, I need a sound
A song to sing so we can carry on
Just let it be sung so we can 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've got to touch the bottom before you can come back up
And I know what you're heart is telling you
'Cause my heart's telling me the same thing too

This ship is going down
Desperately, I need a sound
A song to sing so we can carry on
Just let it be sung so we can carry on
Let it be sung so we
Let it be sung so we could carry on
