Sunday morning, I heard the preacher say Thou shall not kill I don´t wanna hear nothing else about killing And that is God´s will
´Cause our children are watching us They put their trust in us, they´re going be like us So let´s learn from our history And do it differently
Oh baby, I hope for more love, more joy and laughter I hope we´ll have more than you´ll ever need I hope we´ll have more happy ever afters I hope and we can all live more fearlessly And we can lose all the pain and misery I hope, I hope
Oh Rosie, her man, he, gets too rough And all she can say is he´s a good man He don´t mean no harm He was just brought up that way
Our children are watching us They put their trust in us, they´re gonna be like us It´s okay for us to disagree And we can work it out lovingly
I hope for more love, joy and laughter I hope you´ll have more than you´ll ever need I hope you´ll have more happy ever afters I hope and you can all live more fearlessly And you can lose all your pain and misery I hope, I hope, yes, you can
There must be a way To change what´s going on Oh no, I don´t have all the answers But one thing
I hope for more love, more joy and laughter I hope we´ll have more than you´ll ever need I hope we´ll have more happy ever afters I hope and we can all live more fearlessly We can lose all the pain and the misery I hope, I hope
Oh babe, all the pain and misery I hope, I hope
Come on love, give me happiness Love and peace (I hope) No more hating and hurting I hope Give me little love, baby I hope
Don´t you know? I´m hoping for love and happiness (I hope) Just to come my way
