Текст пісні
Old man
Your race is run
You think it's over
It's only begun
Child is born
Who has to face
The world you're leaving a dangerous place
Listen to the voices
Crying to be free
Can we be the promise that we promised to be
Love and understanding are better than a war
People just laughing 'cause they've heard it before
Night chills in plenty town
Cardboard hotels
They sleep on the ground
Hard choices how to respond
Red or rosé with the Duck à l'Orange
Listen to the voices
So easy to ignore
Choruses of old folk scared to open the door
Living in the shadows
Dying in the cold
Inner city jungle ain't no place to grow old
Helpless, we'll never be
Though justice is so hard to see
Kindness, yes
That same old song?
But don't stop singing
There's so much strength in kindness
Listen to the voices (Crying to be free)
Crying to be free (Can we be the promise)
Can we be the promise (That we promised to be)
Love and understanding (Are better than a war)
Better than a war (People just laughing)
People just laughing ('Cause they've heard it before)
Listen to the voices
Crying to be free
Can we be the promise that we promised to be
Listen to the voices (Listen to the voices)
Crying to be free (Crying to be free)
Can we be the promise (Can we be the promise)
That we promised to be (Promised to be)
Love and understanding (Love and understanding)
Are better than a war (Are better than a war)
People just laughing, laughing, laughing (People just laughing)
'Cause they've heard it before (Heard it before)
