Oh Life (there Must Be More) Lyrics - Singles - The Alan Parsons Project

Waves roll out 

Out to sea 

Tasting the saltwater 

Tears upon her cheeks 

Morning breaks, she's not there 

Who could ever find her? 

Who would even care? 

Oh ohh 

No one heard 

No one came 

No angel of mercy 

Appears to know her name 

Where is hope 

When words fail? 

All the colors running 

Inside when life turns pale 

Oh, in the docks the boats are harbored 

Where the water's cold and still 

"Oh" life, she cries, "I've lost the will" 

From the bridge she sees a lifetime 

Being washed upon the shore 

"Oh life", she cries, "There must be more" 

Tides roll in 

Waters rise 

Any chance of reason 

Only clouds her eyes 

Arms of grace 

She won't feel 

All the wounds inside her 

That time can never heal 

The city lights shine seaward 

Swirling in her trance 

Her eyes upon the water 

Alone in her last dance 

From the docks the boats are leaving 

As she cries into the dawn 

"Oh life, I'm barely holdin' on" 

And she sees her future falling till it finds the ocean floor 

"Oh life", she cries, "There must be more, oh" 

There must be more, oh 

And with the early light 

She'll sail into the clear 

The winds are all behind her 

The hour's almost here 

Oh, from the bridge she hears the voices turn into a roar 

"Oh life", she cries, "There must be more" 

On the dock her soul is sinking but her spirit longs to soar 

"Oh life", she cries, "There must be more" 

There must be more 

There must be more 

Oh life, I'm barely holdin' on, ohh 

There must be more 

There must be more 

Oh life there must be something more, ohh
