Prince Tui Teka - For the Life of Me video

(Lyrics below). My folks used to follow him to his gigs in the 80s. This was their wedding song. Dey fell in love with his songs and because of it, ha ha. For the Life of Me How can there be a song without the music How can there be a wave without the sea The lightning needs the thunder as a speaking voice And I must have you for the life of me How can there be a baby with no crying A future with no past can never be A humming bird can't live unless it's free to fly And I must have you for the life of me I know that sunshine follows rain I know that pleasure follows pain And I know that I must have you somehow Every ship waits for the crew And every rose waits for the dew But I need you right now How can there be an end with no beginning So run to me I'm waiting helplessly And break these shackles of impatience or make-believe For I must have you for the life of me
