WE ARE THE CHILDREN
There’s a man
And there’s a woman
There’s the love that finds them together
There’s the child that binds them together
Is this all?
Well there’s a tree
And there’s the sunshine
There's the love that they seak together
There's the harvest we reap together
Is this all?
Well there are wars
And there is hunger
To starve those strapped little hearts forever
A wrong that's trapped in our hearts forever
Is this all?
It's really time to get real
And put our lives in realtime
We have our own spinning wheel
It's spinning round in realtime
The wealth is in the hands of the few
It wouldn't be the first time
For those who have to make do
It couldn't be a worse crime
Well there are seas
To feed the earth
To feed the love between sister and brother
To feed the child that feed's from it's mother
Is this all?
Well there’s a world
Too big to mention
And there’s the love that we share together
And there’s the fruit that we bare together
Is this all?
We are the children
Of a country
And we all belong together
And we'll sing along together
What we know
We are the children
Of the world
And we all belong together
And we'll sing along together
What we know
We are the children
Of the universe
And we all belong together
And we'll sing along together
What we know
We watch the stars
Too vast to contemplate
And we know we will die whenever
And yet the universe lives forever
Is this all?
This is all
