We are a rock revolving Around a golden sun We are a billion children rolled into one So when I hear about the hole in the sky Saltwater wells in my eyes. We climb the highest mountain We'll make the desert bloom We're so ingenious we can walk the moon But when I hear of how the forest have died Saltwater wells in my eyes. Ref.: I have lived for love But now that's not enough For the world I love is dying And now I'm crying And time is not a friend (no friend of mine) As friends we're out of time And it's slowly passing by ....right before our eyes. We light the deepest ocean Send photographs of Mars We're so enchanted my how clever we are Why should one baby feel so hungry she cries Saltwater wells in my eyes. Ref.: ... We are a rock revolving Around a golden sun We are a billion children rolled into one What will I think of me the day that I die Saltwater wells in my eyes Saltwater wells in my eyes.
