Lyrics

This World

[Verse 1]

Another child is born

Another race is won

Another dream is shattered

Another day's begun

[Chorus]

This world is still afloat

No, not in Noah's boat

We've only lost the vision

Of the stars we're meant to be

[Verse 2]

Another broken heart

Another lesson learnt

Another harvest eaten

Another night is gone, a new day's begun

Even your dreams, they can be real

[Chorus]

This world is still afloat

No, not in Noah's boat

We've only lost the vision

Of the stars we're meant to be

This world is still afloat

No, not in Noah's boat

We've only lost the vision

Of the stars we're meant to be

[Refrain]

This world is full of love, we still have hope

This world is full of love, we still have hope

This world is full of love, we still have hope

This world is full of love, we still have hope

This world is full of love, we still have hope

This world is full of love, we still have hope

This world is full of love, we still have hope

This world is full of love, we still have hope
