beautiful world

Radio……
it tells me that
Of what I already know

The war hasn’t ended, the bombs haven’t stopped
The children cry out to their parents
Wishing for the things they just haven’t got

a terrible world, a terrible place to be
but a beautiful world waiting to be set free

the dark of the morning
i hear a voice and its calling
radio, radio
you repeat, you repeat
the things i already know

The hurt are still hurting, with hearts still cold
a little girl lost in this world
Still searching for sombody to hold

a terrible world, a terrible place to be
But a beautiful world, if only we could see

And it’s the end of a night
with too many minds
blown up with the mines
a parent still grieving
a boy has just died
are we still beleiving?

The fighting still goes on, the bombs will still be dropped
Power is winning and coming out strong
But nothing gets done, when nothing is stopped

it’s a terrible world, a terrible place to be
it could be a beautiful world, if only we could agree.
