Yesterday I heard the news
That four million Russian children are homeless,
They've been abandoned by the people they trust.
Now they're cold and lonely lives are hopeless…
Children of the world are dying
People say they care
They're lying…
If this life was theirs
They be crying
Is it really fair were not trying…
Yesterday I read the news
That twenty million Asian children are homeless
They've been abandoned by the people they love
They've been beaten down so hard they can't get up.
Children of the world are dying
People say they care
They're lying…
If this life was theirs
They be crying
Is it really fair?
Children of the world (are dying)
People say they care
They're lying…
If this life was theirs
They be crying
Is it really fair were not trying
Life is beautiful for some
Life is beautiful for us
Life isn't beautiful for them
Maybe life can be beautiful again
For them…
