For All Mankind lyrics by Christie
Title: For all mankindArtist: Christie
Composer: Jeff Christie
==========================
My childhood wasn't
what you might call it success
I was born in Northern England
in a time of strive and stress
The was was over and
somebody said we'd won
but I was too young to know
all the damage that was done
Now looking back
there are things that I recall
I was frightened of the dark
when I was small
They say it's over now at last
Think of the future not the past
And we will try
to build a new and better life
Out of darkness we'll bring light
for all mankind
Yes we will strive
now until the end of time
for the sake of you and I
and all mankind
Sometimes I think of all
the prizes we have won
But we are no victor now
than before when we had known
I look around and I see
ashes everywhere
Yet the madness still goes on
Just a many body care
Though on reflection
there are words that I still hear
Could it be that someone
somewhere is sincere
No matter what the price may be
We must believe in sanity
And we will try
to build a new and better life
Out of darkness we'll bring light
for all mankind
Yes we will strive
now until the end of time
for the sake of you and I
and all mankind
And we will try
to build a new and better life
Out of darkness we'll bring light
for all mankind
Yes we will strive
now until the end of time
for the sake of you and I
and all mankind
