Tell Me a Story |
In the cruel of dawn |
So young and battleworn |
No time for games |
They’re making their way |
In the urban sprawl |
They’re not looking for love |
Just a little understanding |
That’s all there can be |
Tell me a story |
Take me to another land |
This world we were born in |
Is one I’ll never understand |
In the counting house |
The kings are counting out |
The rich take it all |
Giving arms to the poor |
For some third world war |
They’re not counting love |
They just count their money |
Like no one goes hungry |
Tell me a story |
Take me to another land |
This world we were born in |
Is one I’ll never understand |
Oh, won’t you tell me a secret |
Take me to a better place |
Where white flags are flying |
There’ll be an anthem for the human race |
What about meaning |
One world |
What about reason |
One hope |
What about freedom |
Won’t you tell me a story |
In the dead of night |
Too many people cry |
Hand over hand |
They’re making a stand |
For what they know is right |
They’re not looking for love |
They just want their freedom |
And you just can’t stand by |
Closing your eyes |
When all of your futures are lying there bleeding |
Tell me a story |
Take me to another land |
This world we were born in |
Is one I’ll never understand |
Oh, won’t you tell me a secret |
Take me to a better place |
Where white flags are flying |
There’ll be an anthem for the human race |
What about meaning |
One world |
What about reason |
One hope |
What about freedom |
Won’t you tell me a story |
One world |
What about love |
In our time |
What about reason |
One hope |
What about freedom |
