Lyrics

Room for Us All

she?s finding treasure in a rubbish dump
he?s finding her enchanting
she tends a little patch of fertile spoil
he knows the time for planting

there is room for us all
there is room for us all
there is room

he gives his money surreptitiously
no need for recognition
his old friends look at him suspiciously
bemoan his lack of ambition

there is room for us all
there is room for us all
there is room (x 2)

she cooks dinner for a hungry crowd
he helps her to prepare it
she knows that there?s enough to go around
if we would only share it

there is room for us all
there is room for us all
there is room (x2)

we?re in this together
sister, brother
carers of the planet
lovers of each other

he learns to knit and she has learned to sew
they mend their clothes together
patching so the tears no longer show
he hopes they?ll last forever

there is room for us all
there is room for us all
there is room (x3)
