Lyrics

Can we sing a song of peace
In a world that’s full of fear?
Can a melody of hope
Ever hope to dry a tear?
It’s an easy thing to say
And it’s so hard to hear
Will the fighting ever cease
If we sing a song of peace?

Can we sing a song of love
When we’re hostages of hate?
Will it be heard above
The shouting at the gate?
Can we stop the hands of time
Can we hold the hand of fate?
In this world of push and shove
Can we sing a song of love?

Clouds are gathering on the horizon
And on the wind overtures of war
It may be too late to settle for peace
If we wait till we’ve settled the score

Can we sing a song of peace
When they’re knocking down the doors?
Can you hold an olive branch
And hang on to what is yours?
Till the weapons that destroy
Go to join the dinosaurs
Will there still be hope at least
If we sing a song of peace?
Can we sing a song of peace
In a world that’s full of fear?
Can a melody of hope
Ever hope to dry a tear?
It’s an easy thing to say
And it’s so hard to hear
But the longings never cease
So we sing a song of peace
