verse 1 Before we knew the world was round, before we sailed the sea Before we said what’s yours is yours, what’s mine belongs to me verse 2 The world was made of people, and no lines were drawn between We looked upon a stranger, as a friend we never seen Then somehow we were blinded, somehow we lost our way We let our own difference grow, to what it is today Now faith is getting weaker, and the day is getting near When a world that grew up smiling, will leave us with a tear The time fo-or love, is here verse 3 When life was just a simple thing, like apples on a tree And grass was there to lie upon, and skies were there to see verse 4 We smiled our smiles together, and we sometimes had to cry We sipped the wine of friendship, and we raised our glasses high And now we sit and wonder, where did it all go wrong It may be in the singing, we forgot about the song And time is rushing by us, by the hour by the year We cannot wait for miracles, to suddenly appear Outro The time fo-or love, the time fo-or love The time fo-or love, is here The time fo-or love, the time fo-or love The time fo-or love, is here
