Through these Eyes

I can't believe it

Was it just a dream?

Or did I reach out

And stand inside a world of make believe?

Life moves slowly

Tracks worn thin with time

Millions homeless

Bellies swollen till they're barely still alive

Through these eyes

I can see clearly now

Through these eyes

I can see clearly now

The refugee stands on the highway

The wheels of fortune turn

And we all fall down

There's an actor in the White House

While the statesman waits with Ceasar's blade

We talk of Star Wars

Like some childrens game

We give them wheat to live

Sell the arms

Just to kill again

We have the know how

In a perfect world

We're at the crossroads

And the chance we have

May never come again

Through these eyes

I can see clearly now

Through these eyes

I can see clearly now
