The World Through a Child's Eyes

​(Verse 1) Look at the sky, it's turning gray The grown-ups forgot how to play Loud noises echo in the night Why do the older people fight? ​(Pre-Chorus) They leave the toys and take the steel And break a world they cannot heal. ​(Chorus) We just want a world of green and blue Where every heart is kind and true No more shadows, no more tears Let our laughter chase away the fears We are the light, innocent and bright Waiting for the morning after the night. ​(Verse 2) They build the walls and drop the fire Lost in their anger and desire They chase the gold and lose their way Forgetting what it means to crave. ​(Pre-Chorus) But in our hands, we hold a seed A simple hope is all we need. ​(Chorus) We just want a world of green and blue Where every heart is kind and true No more shadows, no more tears Let our laughter chase away the fears We are the light, innocent and bright Waiting for the morning after the night. ​(Bridge) We don't understand the wars they wage We just want to turn the page With tiny hands and open eyes We watch the smoke spew from the skies. If they could see the world we see How beautiful this life could be. ​(Outro) Let the children lead the way To a brighter, peaceful day No more violence, no more pain Just flowers growing in the rain... Just flowers growing in the rain...
