Des’ree

Little child, your eyes I see your pain
My heart cries, when I hear you cry again
Frail and small, can you believe fifteen years old
What is sad, he hasn't got far to go, oh oh, no no
Yes, we'll cry, yes we'll cry
Our hearts they feel no hate
Babies scream, babies scream
They'll never achieve their dreams
Shall we dance, yes we'll dance
The sky will hear our song
And maybe rain
'Cos it's been much too long
Mother's die, leaving hungry mouths behind
They can't hold on, when God wants them by His side
It's up to me, it's up to you
Visualize and pray, is what we mustn't forget to do
Yes, we'll cry, yes we'll cry
Our hearts they feel no hate, no, no
Babies scream, babies scream
They'll never achieve their dreams
Shall we dance, yes we'll dance
The sky will hear our song
And maybe rain
'Cos it's been much too long
Dry land, open up and let me in
Dry land, look what is happening
You know, there is plenty, plenty
Plenty of work to do
This can't go down as another disaster in history
This can't go down as another disaster in history
This can't go down as another disaster in history
