If you want to know whyThere's love that cannot
lieLove is strongIt only cares of joyful
givingIf we try we shall seeIn this bliss we
cannot feelFear or dreadWe stop existing and
start livingThen it feels that alwaysLove's
enough for us growingSo make a better worldMake
a better place ...And the dream we were
conceived inWill reveal a joyful faceAnd the
world we once believed inWill shine again in
graceThen why do we keep strangling lifeWound
this earth, crucify its soulThough it's plain to
seeThis world is heavenlyBe god's glow
There's a place in your heartAnd I know that it
is loveAnd this place could be muchBrighter
than tomorrowAnd if you really tryYou'll find
there's no need to cryIn this place you'll
feelThere's no hurt or sorrowThere are ways to
get thereIf you care enough for the livingMake
a little spaceMake a better place ...Heal the
worldMake it a better placeFor you and for
meAnd the entire human raceThere are people
dyingIf you care enough for the livingMake it a
better placeFor you and for me
We could fly so highLet our spirits never dieIn
my heart I feel you are all my brothersCreate a
world with no fearTogether we'll cry happy
tearsSee the nations turn their swords into
plowsharesWe could really get thereIf you
cared enough for the livingMake a little
spaceTo make a better place ...Heal the world
we are livingSave it for our childrenYou and
for me ...
