|
A ray of hope flickers in the sky |
|
A tiny star lights up way up high |
|
All across the land dawns a brand new morn' |
|
This comes to pass |
|
When a child is born |
|
|
|
A silent wish sails the seven seas |
|
The winds of change whisper in the trees |
|
And the walls of doubt crumble, tossed and torn |
|
This comes to pass |
|
When a child is born |
|
|
|
A rosey hue settles all around |
|
You got the feel, you're on solid ground |
|
For a spell or two no-one seems forlorn |
|
This comes to pass |
|
When a child is born |
|
|
|
And all of this happens because the world is waiting |
|
Waiting for one child, black, white, yellow - no one knows |
|
But a child that will grow up and turn tears to laughter |
|
Hate to love, war to peace and everyone to everyone's neighbour |
|
And misery and suffering will be words to be forgotten, forever |
|
|
|
It's all a dream, an illusion now |
|
It must come true sometime soon somehow |
|
All across the land dawns a brand new morn' |
|
This comes to pass |
|
When a child is born |
|
This comes to pass |
|
When - a child - is bor-or-orn... |
|
Is bor-or-orn... |
|
Is born... |
