Children of the World Lyrics by Peter Maffay

PETER MAFFAY UND...

2020

[Songtext zu „Children of the World“]
[Chorus]
One heart, one love
One song, one life
Singin' hand in hand
With our love
For the children of the world
Of the world
[Verse 1]
They keep walkin' for days
For the right to live
Babies suffering pain
They search us to give
Mothers sacrifice for their hungry child
Fighting to survive just to watch them die
[Pre-Chorus]
Nothing seems to change
But nothing stays the same
Wipe these tears away
And turn the world around in peace
[Chorus]
One heart, one love
One song, one lifе
Singin' hand in hand
With our love
For the children of thе world
Of the world
[Verse 2]
When they look deep in our eyes
To get a helping hand
We let those sweet angels cry
We must protect the future
And feed a child in need
How can we look and abuse them
Born to smile and born to dream
[Pre-Chorus]
Nothing seems to change
But nothing stays the same
Wipe these tears away
And turn the world around in peace
[Chorus]
One heart, one love
One song, one life
Singin' hand in hand
With our love
For the children of the world
Of the world
[Bridge]
Let's make a stand for the innocent
Because the young lack the will to face
In every corner of every land
So at least cry peace
Cry peace
[Verse 3]
(One heart) These dreams are mine
I don't wanna work in your diamond mine (One love)
I'm afraid of stepping on your land mine (One soul)
Want you to know that I'm not fine (One life)
Why the lying? Why the crying?
All I wanted were your hugs
But all you give me are your rods
I want to be brave not your slave
Take me out of this cave
Why build my castle on the sand?
Was this your grand plan?
[Chorus]
One heart, one love
One song, one life
Singin' hand in hand
With our love
For the children of the world
One heart (One heart), one love (One love)
One song, one life
Singin' hand in hand
With our love
For the children of the world (Children of the world)
Of the world, of the world
For the children of the world
