Ari Jasper – What We Need Lyrics

What We Need – Ari Jasper Lyrics

She’s got gravel in her voice, and dirt in her hair

Some people say she’s old enough to show a little care

But she’s got a certain way, of leaving yesterday

Behind, a while, and caring for today

She likes to be outside

Doesn’t care to hide

Her skin can’t confide in the blue of room light

She strays from her mark

The borders of the park

And walks till the Karri trees lose all their bark

But I can’t keep her forever

But she’s exactly what we need

She knows that she’s free from our lead

She could live endlessly through you and me

Cause she’s exactly what we need

And doesn’t care, how she’s perceived

Makes her word last, she speaks carefully

Translates the wind

Reverts all our sin

But knows in her heart that the world cannot win

And I can’t keep her together

But she’s exactly what we need

She knows that she’s free from our lead

She could live endlessly through you and me

Cause she’s exactly what we need

And she uses words we don’t know exist

And picks up on clues that the rest of us missed

She sits on the floor while the rest take their throne

Opens her door while she lives on her own

She walks from the store, and carries by hand

Or runs on bare feet with her toes in wet sand

And she doesn’t fuss to buy a new phone cause she knows it’s enough

Enough to call home

But she’s exactly what we need

She knows that she’s free from our lead

She could live endlessly through you and me

Cause she’s exactly what we need

Yeah she’s exactly what we need
