We’re standing up for the job creators
We know that someday they will come through
All that’s needed is lower taxes
That’s what they’re waiting for us to do
We think it’s great they have so much money
We know they’ll spend it responsibly…

I don't know why I love you but I do
I don't know why I cry so but I do
I only know I'm lonely and that I want you only

I don't know what to do, I feel so helpless…

And tenderness, a hope for more
And Trust, a key to any door
What comfort, then…
