To the Light

I've heard it said

The earth looks peaceful

When it's seen from outer space

Such a pretty place

For you and me

How do we

Hear the wisdom

Of the crickets in the night

Singing out of sight

From way down here?

Way down here

Where there's always right or wrong

But why can't we just try to get along?

Oh

I've heard it said

There's a hundred billion galaxies of light

Spinning out of sight

For you and me

We could be

Just as peaceful

As the earth from outer space

Living in a place

Of harmony

Harmony

Could be such a joyful sound

But why do we just put each other down?

Oh

Just consider that there is no wrong or right

And consider that there is no black or white

There are always shades of gray

To help us find a way

To the light

To the light

Just consider that there is no wrong or right

And consider that there is no black or white

There are always shades of gray

To help us find a way

To the light

To the light

I've heard it said

That every culture

Has its history in stone

Dances of their own

They like to do

Wouldn't you

Like to be accepted

Just the way you are?

Is that really so hard to see?

Couldn't we

Find a way to understand

And blow away that line

In the sand?

Oh

I've heard it said

The earth looks peaceful

When it's seen from outer space

Such a pretty place

For you and me
