i was born in 82 a poor man s son when it came to hand me downs he only gave me one at first i was ungrateful and once i was confused he said music is the cup for you i pour it s all i really have wish i can give you more but i have to catch my ride son i m off to a distant shore see my dad gave me the keys but i had to show myself to the door soon the words he left were too faint to hear and a path of no direction made it hard to steer my soul was dry at first year my mind was so unclear while wandering around in searching there i came across a man i ve seen before i swear and again i d see him too on the beach with the fating of the moon and he d say communication is calling you it s all in you no hesitation you ve got to see this through i needed something to fill me up in my bag a gift from dad my music cup well i should have looked there first in an attempt to quench the thirst each day was like a melody with words to follow so expressively i was off to share my song i knew it wouldn t be too long till i was standing on the stage and the crowd would sing it back to me and we d sing communication is calling us it s all in us a celebration for you and me and the universe our destination oh when we search beyond ourselves you know we always learn let our walls crumble and burn away can we lend a better hand then the one that we ve been dealt and we sing la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la we sing communication i walked the beach that morning and i found my fateful friend when there with his words of wisdom and a fishing rod in hand i watched him and i listened so peculiar and so sweet singing love is all that we need and communication yeah and communication la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la i said communication is calling me and yes it s all in me the cup has served me well for 15 years with music in my world i ve shed some fears and i ve tried to understand how to be a better man there is rhythm to my life that ebbs and flows sometimes the inspiration comes and goes but whenever it arrives well i go down and take a dive when i swam up to the surface i sing communication every time yeah yeah i sing communication i sing communication every time i sing communication la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
