[Verse 1]
Think of a time
When morning will come
And you will wake up without the feeling
That half the world has gone insane
You'll open your eyes
Reading your paper or drink from your cup
No one was burning down the town while you were sleeping
[Chorus]
I've never seen but I believe
In a promised land
Why can't we pull this together?
One and all, now and forever
Why can't we pull this together?
And we can say we finally found the world around us safe and sound
[Verse 2]
Think of a place you could believe in whatever you want
Not keep it secret
Have to risk your life just to be yourself
A place where you walk safely no matter your color or age
More than the greed of you and me
Decides the fate of the day
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
I'd rather see you set it free than watch the curtains coming down
Think of a life that won't take the breath from somebody else
One where you're seeking more than yourself
[Chorus]
Why can't we pull this together?
One and all, now and forever
Why can't we pull this together?
And we can say we finally found a world around us safe and sound
Why can't we pull this together?
One and all, now and forever
Why can't we pull this together
And we can say we finally found the world around us safe and sound
[Outro]
I'd rather see you set it free than watch the curtains coming down...
