where has all the love gone

today i saw the strangest thing on the evening news

a man who wasn't sad at all about what's going on

and even though i'm trying to smile

with everything i see it could take a while

i've been looking everywhere i go

where has all the love

where has all the love gone?

i've been looking all around to know

where has all the love

where has all the love gone?

yesterday i heard you say you never close your eyes

sometimes the world's a scary ride

it's hard to hang on

along the way we got off track

and if we turn around can we ever get back?

you say it was there when we were young

today i saw a flag roll by on a wooden box

and if it's true we lost our way

then what have we got?

today i saw the strangest thing
