I'm so sorry for the world today
With all the killing and all the hate
I get down on my knees and pray
That it's not too late
That it's not too late for peace
And it's not too late for love
For all the children everywhere
I ask the old ones up above:
"Won't you hear this prayer?"
It's not too late to turn it round
We gotta find some common ground
I know it's there
And it comes as no surprise
It's deep within our children's eyes
It's everywhere, oh yeah
So comfort those who wake in fright
And hold them in your arms
Tell them all it'll be alright
Keep them safe from harm
And we hope as we all wait
Wait to see the snow white dove
For all the children everywhere
I ask the old ones up above:
"Won't you hear this prayer?"
It's not too late to turn it round
We gotta find some common ground
I know it's there
And it comes as no surprise
It's deep within our children's eyes
It's everywhere
It's not too late for peace and love
I ask the old ones up above:
"Won't you hear this prayer?"
It's not too late
It's not too late
