[Verse 1]
What about sunrise?
What about rain?
What about all the things
That you said we were to gain?
What about killing fields?
Is there a time?
What about all the things
That you said was yours and mine?
[Pre-Chorus]
Did you ever stop to notice?
All the blood we've shed before
Did you ever stop to notice?
This crying earth, it's weeping shore
[Chorus]
Aaaah! Oooh!
Aaaah! Oooh!
[Verse 2]
What have we've done to the world?
Look what we've done
What about all the peace
That you pledge your only son?
What about flowering fields?
Is there a time?
What about all the dreams
That you said was yours and mine?
[Pre-Chorus]
Did you ever stop to notice?
All the children dead from war?
Did you ever stop to notice?
This crying earth, it's weeping shore?
[Chorus]
Aaaah! Oooh!
Aaaah! Oooh!
[Pre-Chorus]
Did you ever stop to notice?
All the blood we've shed before?
Did you ever stop to notice?
This crying earth, it's weeping shore?
[Chorus]
Aaaah! Oooh!
Aaaah! Oooh!
What about sunrise?
What about rain?
What about all the things
That you said we were to gain?
What about killing fields?
Is there a time?
What about all the things
That you said was yours and mine?
[Pre-Chorus]
Did you ever stop to notice?
All the blood we've shed before
Did you ever stop to notice?
This crying earth, it's weeping shore
[Chorus]
Aaaah! Oooh!
Aaaah! Oooh!
[Verse 2]
What have we've done to the world?
Look what we've done
What about all the peace
That you pledge your only son?
What about flowering fields?
Is there a time?
What about all the dreams
That you said was yours and mine?
[Pre-Chorus]
Did you ever stop to notice?
All the children dead from war?
Did you ever stop to notice?
This crying earth, it's weeping shore?
[Chorus]
Aaaah! Oooh!
Aaaah! Oooh!
[Pre-Chorus]
Did you ever stop to notice?
All the blood we've shed before?
Did you ever stop to notice?
This crying earth, it's weeping shore?
[Chorus]
Aaaah! Oooh!
Aaaah! Oooh!
