Earth Song lyrics by Michael Jackson

Title : EARTH SONG

Artist : MICHAEL JACKSON

Reference Number : 0964


What about sunrise. What about rain,
What about all the things that you said we were to gain...
What about killing fields. Is there a time,
What about all the things that you said was yours and mine...

Did you ever stop to notice all the blood we've shed before,
Did you ever stop to notice this crying Earth this weeping shore?

Aaaaaaah.... Aaaaaaah....

What have we done to the world, look what we've done,
What about all the peace that you pledge your only son.
Did you ever stop to notice all the children dead from war,
Did you ever stop to notice..
This crying Earth this weeping shore?

Aaaaaaah.... Aaaaaaah....

I used to dream, I used to glace beyond the stars,
Now I don't know where we are,
Although I know we've drifted far.....

Aaaaaaah.... Aaaaaaah....

(Key Change)

Aaaaaaah.... Aaaaaaah....

Hey, what about yesterday (What about us)
What about the seas (What about us)
The heavens are falling down (What about us)
I can't even breathe (What about us)
What about the bleeding Earth (What about us)
Can't we feel its wounds (What about us)
What about nature's worth (Ooo, Ooo)
It's our planet's womb (What about us)

What about the holy land (What about it)
Torn apart by creed (What about us)
What about the common man (What about us)
Can't we set him free (What about us)
What about children dying (What about us)
Can't you hear them cry (What about us)
Where did we go wrong (Ooo, Ooo)
Someone tell me why (What about us)

Aaaaaaah.... Aaaaaaah....
