lyrics version 1
Oh try and judge me only by my time and changes
And don't mistake my words for I say many
Listen closely to this song and watch my eyes
There's not much time left to start if any
Lovely long haired children living in the streets
I think they're lucky, not afraid to love each other
They're not afraid to be themselves with someone else
Or choose their friends by love and not by colour
Never treat a brother like a passing stranger
Always try to keep your love light burning
Listen closely to his song and watch his eyes
For he might be the prince of peace returning (Aah aah)
Oh yes he might be the prince of peace returning (Aah aah)
Love the no no no
Love the blind and wounded as you would yourself
And the businessmen in cells collecting pennies
They judge their wealth by coins that they give away
And not the one they keep themselves for spending
Never be impatient with the ones you love
'Cause it just might be yourself that you're burning
Listen only to their song and watch their eyes
For you might see the prince of peace returning
Oh never treat a brother like a passing stranger
Always try to keep that love light burning
Listen closely to this song and watch the sky
And you might see the prince of peace returning (Aah aah aah)
You might see the prince of peace returning (Aah aah aah)
Oh you might see the prince of peace returning (Aah aah aah)
Woh you might see the prince of peace returning (Aah aah aah)
Why me Lord
And don't mistake my words for I say many
Listen closely to this song and watch my eyes
There's not much time left to start if any
Lovely long haired children living in the streets
I think they're lucky, not afraid to love each other
They're not afraid to be themselves with someone else
Or choose their friends by love and not by colour
Never treat a brother like a passing stranger
Always try to keep your love light burning
Listen closely to his song and watch his eyes
For he might be the prince of peace returning (Aah aah)
Oh yes he might be the prince of peace returning (Aah aah)
Love the no no no
Love the blind and wounded as you would yourself
And the businessmen in cells collecting pennies
They judge their wealth by coins that they give away
And not the one they keep themselves for spending
Never be impatient with the ones you love
'Cause it just might be yourself that you're burning
Listen only to their song and watch their eyes
For you might see the prince of peace returning
Oh never treat a brother like a passing stranger
Always try to keep that love light burning
Listen closely to this song and watch the sky
And you might see the prince of peace returning (Aah aah aah)
You might see the prince of peace returning (Aah aah aah)
Oh you might see the prince of peace returning (Aah aah aah)
Woh you might see the prince of peace returning (Aah aah aah)
Why me Lord
