Look at the world


Wake up little friend, It's a beautiful sunset,
Don't you sleep it away
Where are you going? Where have you been?
I'm asking today.

Open your window, take a deep breath,
Throw your hang-ups away!
Look at the birds! Look at the sky!
See how they fly!

Look at the world in a different way,
There's so much love to give in your world today.

I asked you out for a drink or two
But you had something else you preferred to do
And I cannot ask you why
it feels like a setup or a lie....

You're so beautiful;
And your sweet love smashed me off the ground
But you changed ... for chilly and cold
I don't know the way

We shared a dream, but your dream
Where did it go?
Who's been hurting you? Who's been bad?
Answer today....

Look at the world in a different way,
There's so much love to give in your world today.
