When you were children far away
She certainly loved you from far away
But little children they ran away
Aways away
Where they could be safe
And as she grew up oh so far away
She believed that
You could be something great
Someone great
She prayed that you'd help to guide the way
You need to grow up now
Stop praying for, wanting more, playing war
We need to grow up now
We're not children anymore
Look at what we lost, what love we've lost
The dead are all around us and they cry
Look at what we lost, what love we've lost
It's time to pay the price
Its time to grow up now
If we we we are truly to stand as one
Let us chant as one
We haven't begun to see the sun
We need to set it right
You have got it in yourself
I am the last man
Standing as the world collapses
(Standing as the world collapses)
Let's start anew
(Let's start anew)
It's what she died for
We're not children anymore no
We're not children anymore
I can see the sunrise
When I close my eyes
I can feel the morning
And I know the dawn is coming
Now, this tale of love has ended
Ours has just begun
If we shades have thee offended then go out and see the sun
So the world in here is just a shadow
We hide in these imaginary lights
While the world out there is a shadow of everything that might be right
So, shades of ghosts and those that live
Rise up, shake hands, resume our days
'Cause this, is all a play
Just make believe, that makes belief and teaches us to say
We need to be great for one instant
Let them say (let them say)
We didn't miss it
And we pray (and we pray)
Every minute
Give us just one moment to shine
We need to be great for one instant
Let them say (let them say)
We didn't miss it
And we pray (and we pray)
Every minute
Give us just one moment to shine
Give us just one moment to shine
