The saddest thing I've ever seen |
|
Was a starving face on my TV screen |
|
The desperate face that I saw |
|
Had my disbelief hanging from my jaw |
|
Our harvest could be shared around |
|
Instead it's buried in the ground |
|
The saddest thing I've ever seen |
|
Was a football fan dying for his team |
|
The toughest thing I have ever known |
|
Was a soldier boy who never made it home |
|
It's fiction live before our eyes |
|
It leaves me cold and my heart cries |
|
The greatest thing I've ever seen |
|
Was a newborn child looking up at me |
|
The greatest sound I've ever heard |
|
Was a baby's cry in this wicked world |
|
The innocence of that cry |
|
Leaves me cold and my heart cries |
|
It's a heartbreaking world if you want it to be |
|
It's a heartbreaking world if you want it to be |
|
It's a heartbreaking world if you want it to be |
|
And you're the one that breaks it for me |
