Isla Grant - Listen To The Children lyrics

They are crying out for peace around the world They are telling us to stop the hurt and pain Their smiles can melt the coldest heart Their tears can pull your world apart Why don't we listen to the children Why can't you see the world their eyes can see There is no room for hate or jealousy And color means nothing to them To a child another is a friend Why don't we listen to the children Why don't we listen, to what they try to say Make a world of peace for them to live in Take a leaf out of the book They read to us each day Why don't we learn a lesson from the children So everyone around the word join hands And spread the word of love across the land Rejoice and live in harmony And pray that peace at last will be They need the help of you and me, our children They are crying out for peace around the world They are telling us to stop the hurt and pain Their smiles can melt the coldest heart Their tears can pull your world apart Why don't we listen to the children
