I must have dreamed a tho usand dreams,
been hunted by a million s creams.
I can hear the marchin g feet,
they're moving into the street.
Now did you read the news today ?
They say the danger 's gone away.
But I can see the fire' s still alight
burning into the ni ght.
There's too many men, too many people
making too many problems,
and not much love to go around.
Can't you see, this is a land of conf usion ?
So t his is the w orld we l ive in,
and these are the hands we're given.
Use them and let's start trying
to make it a place worth living in.
Oh superman, where are you now,
when everything's gone wro ng somehow ?
The man of steel, men of p ower
are losing control by the hour.
This is the time, this is the place.
So we look for the future.
But there's not much love to go around.
Tell me why this is a land of conf usion ?
So t his is the w orld we l ive in,
and these are the hands we're given.
Use them and let's start trying
to make it a place worth living in.
I remember long ago when the sun was shining,
the stars were bright all through the night,
and the sound of your laughter
as I held you tight, so long ago.
I won't be coming home tonight.
My generation will pu t it right.
We're not just makin g promises
that we know we'll n ever keep.
Too many men, too many people
making too many problems,
and not much love to go around.
Can't you see, this is a land of conf usion ?
So t his is the w orld we l ive in,
and these are the hands we're given.
Use them and let's start trying
to make it a place worth fighting for.
This is a world we live in,
and these are the names we're given.
Stand up and let's start showing
just where our lives are going to
