Close your eyes
Let us see
What could be

We could take hope and visions
To make better decisions
Built on reason and love
We’d be much better off 

We would go and plant trees
And stop global diseases
We could even learn how
Within limits to grow
And chose the right way to go

Chorus
For the length of a song
Let’s forget what went wrong
Make the good things around
Take root in strong ground 

For the length of a song
See ideas sprouting strong
Grow together to be
One world family
One world family

We could sit down and talk
To our friends about god,
About balance and peace
About living at ease 

We would go use our voice
To talk about choice
Between now and too late
Between love and hate
Before it’s too late 

Chorus
For the length of a song
Let’s forget what went wrong
Make the good things around
Take root in strong ground

For the length of a song
See ideas sprouting strong
Grow together to be
One world family
One world family

Bridge
Feel the kick of the drum,
        Close your eyes to free your mind and let your body feel
Feel the power of the sun
        That man made wounds to planet earth are not too deep to heal
Feel the beat of the earth
        Ideas of life, ideas of growth can yet be re-arranged
Feel that you can preserve
       If we decide to use our voice and hands to be the change

 Change happens right here
        Feel the power of the earth, of water wind and sun
Old rules disappear
        Pray that people understand that “change” means everyone
Change happens right now
        This planet can stay beautiful for every boy and girl
If you start to go
        If we decide to take the steps to balance our world
If you only start to go

Chorus
For the length of a song
Let’s forget what went wrong
Make the good things around
Take root in strong ground 

For the length of a song
See ideas sprouting strong
Grow together to be
One world family
One world family
