Can we sing a truly good song? We should sing now you and I For the children who live without music In the land where songs have all died They need food for empty bodies We need love to fill our souls They are small and dark and distant We are big enough to know Oh, is it all that real? We see with all our eyes But it's so hard to feel If for us the sun is shining They have one lone evening star See the pictures in our paper And we watch the pictures star Oh, is it all that real We see with all our eyes But it's so hard to feel So can we sing a truly good song? We should sing now you and I For the children who live without music In the land where songs have all died Oh, is it all that real? We breathe enough to live But it is so hard to feel
