Love Is The Answer
Cerrone vs. Liquid People Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Name your price
A ticket to paradise
I can't stay here any more
And I've looked high and low
I've been from shore to shore to shore
If there's a short cut I'd have found it
But there is no easy way around it
Light of the world, shine on me
Love is the answer
Shine on us all
Set us free
Love is the answer

Who knows why
Someday we all must die
We're all homeless boys and girls
And we are never heard
It's such a lonely world
People turn their heads
And walk on by
Tell me is it worth just another try

Are we alive
Or just a dying planet
What are the chances
Ask the man in your heart for the answers
And when you feel afraid

Love one another
When you've lost your way
Love one another
And when you're all alone
Love one another
And when you're far from home
Love one another
And when you're down and out
Love one another
And when your hopes run out
Love one another
And when you need a friend




Love one another
We got to love one another

Line by Line Meaning

Name your price
Tell me what it will cost


A ticket to paradise
A way out of this place


I can't stay here any more
I'm unhappy here and need to leave


And I've looked high and low
I've searched everywhere


I've been from shore to shore to shore
I've traveled many places


If there's a short cut I'd have found it
I would have found an easier way if one existed


But there is no easy way around it
It's a difficult situation that can't be avoided


Light of the world, shine on me
Give me guidance in life


Love is the answer
Love will solve problems


Shine on us all
Guide everyone, not just me


Set us free
Release us from our troubles


Who knows why
Nobody knows the reason


Someday we all must die
Everyone will eventually pass away


We're all homeless boys and girls
No one truly has a home


And we are never heard
Our voices go unheard


It's such a lonely world
The world can be an isolating place


People turn their heads
Others ignore our pleas for help


And walk on by
They continue on their way


Tell me is it worth just another try
Is it worth attempting again?


Are we alive
Are we really living?


Or just a dying planet
Is our world dying?


What are the chances
What are the odds?


Ask the man in your heart for the answers
Listen to your gut feeling


And when you feel afraid
During times of fear


Love one another
Show love to others


When you've lost your way
When you feel lost in life


And when you're all alone
When you're on your own


And when you're far from home
When you're in an unfamiliar place


And when you're down and out
During times of hardship


And when your hopes run out
When you lose hope


And when you need a friend
When you require companionship


We got to love one another
We need to show love and kindness to each other
