I must've dreamed a thousand dreams
|
Been haunted by a million screams
|
But I can hear the marching feet
|
They're moving into the street.
|
|
Now did you read the news today
|
They say the danger's gone away
|
But I can see the fire's still alight
|
There burning into the night.
|
|
There's too many men
|
Too many people
|
Making too many problems
|
And not much love to go round
|
Can't you see
|
This is a land of confusion.
|
|
This is the world we live in
|
And these are the hands we're given
|
Use them and let's start trying
|
To make it a place worth living in.
|
|
Ooh Superman where are you now
|
When everything's gone wrong somehow
|
The men of steel, the men of power
|
Are losing control by the hour.
|
|
This is the time
|
This is the place
|
So we look for the future
|
But there's not much love to go round
|
Tell me why, this is a land of confusion.
|
|
This is the world we live in
|
And these are the hands we're given
|
Use them and let's start trying
|
To make it a place worth living in.
|
|
I remember long ago -
|
Ooh when the sun was shining
|
Yes and the stars were bright
|
All through the night
|
And the sound of your laughter
|
As I held you tight
|
So long ago -
|
|
I won't be coming home tonight
|
My generation will put it right
|
We're not just making promises
|
That we know, we'll never keep.
|
|
Too many men
|
There's too many people
|
Making too many problems
|
And not much love to go round
|
Can't you see
|
This is a land of confusion.
|
|
Now this is the world we live in
|
And these are the hands we're given
|
Use them and let's start trying
|
To make it a place worth fighting for.
|
|
This is the world we live in
|
And these are the names we're given
|
Stand up and let's start showing
|
Just where our lives are going to.
