Charity, all the world really needs is charity
|
We're living in a dream
|
|
I'll plead with you all till it tears me apart.
|
Is this all that we want?
|
Is this all that we really are?
|
|
Turn away if you want, turn away if you like,
|
For the rest of your life, every day every night,
|
In your house and your car, yes I know who you are.
|
Can you not hear the world in its pain trying to call to you?
|
|
Oh, oh, charity, we're living in a dream.
|
Charity, can't fool me with your vanity.
|
I've seen what's in your heart.
|
|
I'll plead with you all till it tears me apart.
|
Is this all that we want?
|
Is this all that we really are?
|
|
Will our hearts ever change, does it sound so strange?
|
When people touch[?] children cry, can you not wonder why?
|
In your own little world, can you not say a word?
|
Try to help someone else on this earth besides yourself.
|
|
Oh, oh, charity, we're living in a dream.
|
Charity, can't fool me with your vanity.
|
I've seen what's in your heart.
|
|
Charity, all the world really needs is charity.
|
Is this all that we want?
|
Is this all we really are?
