In this world of cool deception
Just your smile can smoothe my ride.
Is this the world we devastated, right to the bone
If there's a God in the sky looking down
What can he think of what we've done
To the world that He created?..
The moon and stars
Seem awful cold and bright.
Let's hope the snow will
Make this Christmas right.
So let them know when they stare, it's just a private affair,
They'll have us hung in the air and tell me what do they care,
It's only a life to be twisted and broken.
One by one
Only the good die young
They're only flying to close to the sun
We'll remember -
Forever...
Is this the real life?
Is this just fantasy?
Caught in a landslide,
No escape from reality
We believe there's a deed of obligation -
To bring reconciliation.
To make peace with every nation — in our time,
We believe there's not a minute we should be wasting
When the darkness falls it's too late to fix the crime.
It's peace that we need.
