planet earth
my home
my place
a capricious anomaly in the sea of space
planet earth are you just
floating by
a cloud of dust
do you care
have you a part
in the deepest emotions of my own heart
tender with breezes caressing and whole
alive with music
haunting my soul
planet earth
gentle and blue
with all my heart
i love you
what about sunrise
what about rain
what about all the things
that you said we were to gain
what about killing fields
is there a time
what about all the things
that you said was yours and mine
did you ever stop to notice
all the blood we've shed before
did you ever stop to notice
the crying earth the weeping shores?
aaaaaaaaah
oooooooooh
i used to dream
i used to glance beyond the stars
now i don't know where we are
although i know we've drifted far
hey
what about yesterday
what about the seas
the heavens are falling down
i can't even breathe
what about apathy
i need you
what about nature's worth
it's our planet's womb
what about the holy land
torn apart by creed
what about the common man
can't we set him free
what about children dying
can't you hear them cry
where did we go wrong
someone tell me why
what about baby boy
what about the days
what about all their joy
what about the man
what about the crying man
what about abraham
what about death again
do we give a damn
aaaaaaaaah
oooooooooh
hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo
aaaaaaaaah
oooooooooh
