Story Behind The Song

I am just amazed by the fact that there are so many of us on this planet, each having a deep experience of being human despite our other superficial differences...

Song Description

An up-beat pop song about our connection to each other as human beings.

Lyrics

Together

someone?s moaning now in ecstasy
someone?s crying out God, please?
someone?s flying high and mighty
and someone?s falling to their knees

there is no sense to it really
and it surely isn?t fair
I try to keep the faith that somehow
we?ll find a meeting place somewhere

?cause we are all in this together
swimming deep in pain and pleasure
we?re just a moment in forever
and we are all in this together

someone?s standing at the ocean
in the first rays of the sun
someone?s crying in the darkness
oh my God, what have I done?

there are no saints, there are no sinners
but only saints know that for sure
we must try now to remember
?cause we all fail at staying pure

but we are all in this together
swimming deep in pain and pleasure
we?re just a moment in forever
and we are all in this together

somewhere someone?s reaching down into a garbage can
somewhere someone?s counting all the diamonds on their hands
somewhere someone?s pushing through, struggling to be born
somewhere someone?s letting go
glad to shed this skin they?ve worn

but we are all in this together
swimming deep in pain and pleasure
for just one moment let?s remember
that we are all in this together
yes, we are all in this together?
