The Selfishness in Man |
I saw a little beam of sunlight steal across a purple sky |
And bend down to kiss a rosebud oh it made me wanna cry |
To think that I had been permitted to see a part of nature’s plan |
Oh, there’s nothing that stands out more than the selfishness in man |
Little children painting pictures of the birds and apple trees |
Oh, why can’t the grown up people have the faith of one of these |
And to think those tiny fingers might become a killer’s hand |
Oh, there’s nothing that stands out more than the selfishness in man |
Why can’t we see the folly and the uselessness of hate |
Love could lead to understanding maybe it’s not loo late |
Then perhaps in his great wisdom we might learn to understand |
Then there’d be no shame or sorrow and no selfishness in man |
Why can’t we see the folly and the uselessness of hate |
Love could lead to understanding maybe it’s not loo late |
Then perhaps in his great wisdom we might learn to understand |
Then there’d be no shame or sorrow and no selfishness in man… |
