What about sunrise,
What about rain
What about all the things
That you said we were to gain?
What about killing fields,
Is there a time
What about all the things
That you said were yours and mine
Did you ever stop to notice
all the blood we've shed before?
Did you ever stop to notice
the crying Earth, the weeping shore?
Chorus:
Aah......... Aah...
Oh...........Ooh
Aah............... Aah..
Ooohh...........
Bridge:
What have we done to the world,
look what we've done
What about all the peace
that that you pledge your only son?
What about flowering fields is there a time?
What about all the dreams
that you said were yours and mine?
Did you ever stop to notice
all the children dead from war?
