Lyrics
Wonder
Trade bombs for love/trade guns for peace/trade bombs for love/
Trade guns for peace/trade bombs for love/you been released/
Listen to the silence/breaking with the dawn/ending the violence/
Calming the storm/and just imagine/a new child born/without a war in sight/
Wonder what that would be like/wonder what that would be like/
In the wake of rainbow light/wonder what that would be like/
without some one dying/in a fight for who might be right/ or who might be wrong/
wonder how long must this go on/Before we destroy each other/wonder/wonder/.there?s a simple solution/that will end the confusion/Tolerance and understanding/expanding our minds and hearts/wonder when we?ll get the message/hope it?s not too late/to realize/that there is no room in our lives for hate/wonder when that will happen/I?m always chasing a dream/let me introduce you/to my wonder machine/
Trade bombs for love/trade guns for peace/trade bombs for love/
Trade guns for peace/trade bombs for love/you been released/
Trade bombs for love/trade guns for peace/trade bombs for love/
Trade guns for peace/trade bombs for love/you been released/
