Lyrics
A Thing Called Love
I know it's been going on for a long, long time
Fighting for lands that flow with milk and honey
Conquistadors conquering all through the ages
Over and over fighting for land money
(Chorus): Come back to a thing called love
Let?s live where peace abounds
Come back to a world we share
Love was lost but now it?s found
It seems to be mostly in the poorer countries
There were sixty wars last year on Earth
Remembering somehow that we are all connected
Who?s to say how much a human life is worth
CHORUS
(Bridge): And now at night I sit awake and think about it
How could anyone ever want to kill another
Are we just gangs, are we invaders,
or are we a family of rainbow colors?
CHORUS 2x
(tag): Come back to higher ground
