lyrics

ONLY HUMAN
I’m a walkin’ down the street
Lost in a fantasy
The sun is out and I’m flirting with a stranger See a sister wandering round’
Like her life is up and down.
She’s losing her direction
I see a man with a begging bowl
Says he’ll never cry no more
His past was bright but now
his future in question
Try to do what I can when I can
Do my best to be human
He wants an answer right now
(I say that )
We’re only human
Doing the best that we possibly can Make some mistakes and we
make some new plans We’re only human
Think about my friends you know They work so hard (we’re sayin’)
What’s the point of all the stress It drags me down
We’ve all made a few mistakes
Tell me where’s the give and take
We need some easy, some easy right now Life can knock you down
Or it can raise you up
I know the future’s a question
But we’ll face whatever comes
We’re only human
Doing the best that we possibly can Make some mistakes and we
make some new plans Cuz we’re only human You might be right
You might be wrong
You might be feeling alone
But hey!
You’re only human
So you try to hold it up
When your life is crashing down
It’s hard in these times, in these times it hard Hard to be a human, hard to be a human
You gotta dig deep, find hope, find faith inside We’re only human
Doing the best that we possibly can
Make some mistakes and we’ll
make some new plans We’re only human...
