Lyrics
Same End Of The Rope
c. Glen King & Wendy Becker
1st. Verse;
Don't need a crystal ball to see the future
Tomorrow's like today, seems pretty clear
If we keep looking for a savior
To make our troubles disappear
Ain't gonna happen
Divided we won't stand
Till we stop and realize
We're fingers on one hand:
Chorus:
We gotta pull on
The Same End Of The Rope
If we lean on each other and hope
The past will pass
And, the glass will end up full
If we all just pull
On The Same End Of The Rope.
2nd. Verse:
Sometimes, the road ahead looks like a mountain
Rising up too high for us to climb
So, we keep waiting for a hero
To show us the way
That'll make it easy
Everytime
Ain't gonna happen
No one's knocking on the door
If we don't do it together
We're playing tug-o-war:
Chorus:
We gotta pull on
The Same End Of The Rope
If we lean on each other and hope
The past will pass
And, the glass will end up full
If we all just pull
On The Same End Of The Rope.
Bridge:
Imagine how the moon
Can change the tide
And, you'll feel the power
When we're standing side by side:
Chorus: Repeat.
