|
Stood on the street in the face of a holocaust |
|
With thunder in your voice |
|
As in the grace of great numbers |
|
A world is made |
|
To feel your choice |
|
And I love you |
|
For choosing to live with us |
|
And making some noise |
|
It's time that we joined our hands |
|
Across the world |
|
It's time that we joined our hands |
|
To save our world |
|
Whatever persuasion you are |
|
You must open your door |
|
If you mean to meet |
|
Come and be counted in whispers of multitude |
|
And come on your own feet |
|
I'd love to be able to say |
|
My old grandmother marched |
|
To people the street |
|
It's time that we joined our hands |
|
Across the world |
|
It's time that we joined our hands |
|
To save our world |
|
Before the guardian angels |
|
Disappear on puffs of angel dust |
|
Drop the bombs and guns and rust |
|
And split |
|
When this winter is over Elizabeth |
|
I will come for you |
|
Bearing songs on the wings |
|
Of great happiness |
|
To sing you through |
|
To a far future fountain |
|
Of destinies |
|
A room with a view |
|
It's time that we joined our hands |
|
Across our world |
|
It's time that we joined our hands |
|
To save our world |
