it’s the promise in the air
after the rain
it’s an intuition
when we lose our way
it’s a gentle whisper
buzzing round our ears
it’s the distant light
that tells us we are near
and when we take the
wrong road down
I’m always amazed
how we find a way to
turn it round
and now you know why
why we need each other
and now you know why
why we’re here
and when you feel
feel your heart surrender
now you know why
now you know why
it’s the move that gets us
through a closing gate
it’s the secret way it all
fits into place
it’s the hand we’re dealt
on any given day
it’s the lucky card that
always comes our way
when we hit a wall
when we can’t get through
I’m always surprised
how we find a way
to the other side
and now you know why
why we need each other
and now you know why
why we’re here
and when you feel
feel your heart surrender
now you know why
now you know why
and I know that there are times
when everything just slips our mind
there’s no fanfare or parade
there’s only time for us to take
a little rest a quite break to
celebrate celebrate
it’s when it falls through
when you think there’s nothing
left we can do
here’s a breakthrough
and it’s calling to you
now you know why
why we need each other
and now you know why
why we’re here
now you know why
there couldn’t be another
now you know why
why we care
now you know why
why we need each other
and now you know why
why we’re here
and when you feel
feel your heart surrender
now you know why
