Aspiring temples built by man left trembling in the shifting sand Against the law attraction knows, a chemical reaction slows The chatter coming from the brains of secret silver service names The long lost link turned into dust between the monkey, them and us
Did we remember to forget the gentle gender too upset And waving as the castaway sails out of sight too far away Inside the Helix faded genes the tide will wash to sparkling clean Stretched out upon the discount rack of no return, no coming back From once prophetic vision dreams left drowning in the data streams
Save the world, save the ocean and the seas Save the sky and all the people I know I will never see Save the air that falls across the mountain, rain and snow That kiss the flowers on the cheek The perfume of a waking rose Save the children, save the innocence that's lost Save the laughter and the moments All the treasures never count the cost Save the world, save the world
Our guardian angels sit and wait While drawing lots of heaven's gates With water views and room to play Our paths to glory some will say It's Michael, not it's Gabriel That told me when to buy and sell
I couldn't hear with that big bang And then of course the doorbell rang And someone said I'm from above Let's talk about the book of love It's okay we're just in your mind We'll just come back another time And till the ground with planted seed And count the many worthy deeds The promises you always kept Next to the broom that never swept you up No wonder you can't trust Thank heaven we are made of dust
Save the world, save the ocean and the seas Save the sky and all the people I know I will never see Save the air that falls across the mountain, rain and snow That kiss the flowers on the cheek The perfume of a waking rose
Save the children, save the innocence that's lost Save the laughter and the moments All the treasures never count the cost Save the world, save the world
