I must have dreamed a thousand dreams
Been haunted by a million screams
But I can hear the marching feet
They're moving into the street
Now, did you read the news today?
They say the danger's gone away
Well, I can see the fire's still alight
Burning into the night
Too many men, too many people
Giving to many problems
And not much love to go around
Can't you see this is a land of confusion?
This is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make this a place worth living in
Oh, Superman, where are you now
When everything's gone wrong somehow?
The men of steel, the men of power
Are losing control by the hour
This is the time, this is the place
So we look for the future
There's not much love to go around
Tell me why this is a land of confusion
This is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make this a place worth living in
(This is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make this a place worth living in)
I remember long ago
Oh, I remember long ago
When the sun was shining
