What you see may only be skin deep |
|
But what you feel inside is there for keeps |
|
Can't know happiness 'till you've been sad |
|
But tears drown all the joy you ever had |
|
Talkin' about people |
|
Who spreads wanton hurt |
|
Talkin' about people |
|
Still waiting for their turn |
|
Talkin' about people |
|
Living in incertainty |
|
Ordinary people |
|
People like you and me |
|
Seen your life before you slip away |
|
Hanging on to every irish day |
|
Can't keep up the face |
|
But can't slow down |
|
Life's a rat race there's no short way around |
|
Talkin' about people |
|
Who didn't make the grade |
|
Talkin' about people |
|
Who's just another paid |
|
Talkin about people |
|
Holdin' on for dignity |
|
Ordinary people |
|
People like you and me |
|
You may have nothing else but you've got pride |
|
You have nothing else but you've got pride |
|
Until there's nothing to sacrifice |
|
We'll survive |
|
We'll survive |
|
Talkin' about people |
|
Talkin' about people |
|
Existing from day to day |
|
Talkin' about people |
|
Who lost their way |
|
Talkin' about people |
|
Living by destiny |
|
Ordinary people |
|
Like you and me |
|
When hunger bites you deep down inside |
|
You may have nothing else but you've got pride |
|
And when there's nowhere to run or hide |
|
You'll find there's no short cut and there's no rewrite |
|
Until there's nothing to sacrifice |
|
We'll survive |
|
Never give up till it's gone |
|
Together we'll be strong |
|
We'll survive |
|
(spoken) |
|
In this we breathe the same air |
|
We cherish our children |
|
Never give up until it's gone |
|
We'll survive |
