You tell me there´s no darkness
While the sun shines down on you
And just because your life is peaceful
There´s no fighting left to do
For every cup that runneth over

Many more are filled with pain
You talk to me of sunshine
When it´s pouring down with rain

Just because you can´t see it
Doesn´t mean it isn´t there
Just because it can´t touch you
Doesn´t mean you shouldn´t care
For every life that´s lit with love
Many more are racked with pain
You talk to me of sunshine
When it´s pouring down with rain

(CHORUS)

It´s a long black night, good people
Descended on our land

Share your light
Make a flower grow
In the desert sand
