Lyric When All Else Fails

John Farnham, Ross Fraser, and Phil Buckle

I m searching for something
That s so hard to find
I m falling down mountains
I can t seem to climb
Driving down highways
That don t have an end
I can t find the sign, am I lost again

When all else fails - You will be there
When all else fails - I ll hold on to you
When all else fails - You ll still be there
When all else fails - I ll turn to you

I m selfish and jealous
I m proud and a fool
I m walking with strangers
And strangers are cruel
I m praying to gods
That I don t even know
I m ready and willing
Where do I go?

When all else fails - You will be there
When all else fails - I ll hold on to you
When all else fails - You ll still be there
When all else fails - I ll turn to you

I know I might be mistake
But it s the chance I m taking
I m walking on the wire
I have been burned by temptation
I m drawn into that fire
I m lost in my desire

When all else fails - You will be there
When all else fails - I ll hold on to you
When all else fails - You ll still be there
When all else fails - I ll turn to you
