Everything sparkles
if you just give it a chance
Everyone, big or small,
already knows how to dance
How to dance, how to dance

The sun is always shining
just maybe not today
It will again
but when I cannot say
I cannot say, I cannot say

We live and we die
We pull and try
We love and we lie
But you were right:
We will survive

There's plenty of stars to go around
so let's fill our pockets high
We'll share them with the businessmen
who never look at the sky
At the sky, at the sky

There's gold in every basement
and diamonds in the waste
There's evil in every eye
but love in every face
In every face, in every face

We live and we die
We pull and try
We love and we lie
But you were right:
We will survive

There's angels all around us
though they sometimes hide
They watch us from above
and they stand by our side
By our side, by our side

Your eyes are more than green
They're the colors of a last prayer
I called them home once
But my home is no longer there

We live and we die
We pull and try
We love and we lie
But you were right:
We will survive

But you were right:
We will survive
And here's a kiss for your eyes

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
