Song Of Peace And Hope Lyrics - Singles - Jonathan Van Der Lugt

Two worlds, one planet 

One sky, no hope 

My heart drowns in sorrow 

Knowing you are out there on your own 

I chase my future 

You left your past 

Not knowing if tomorrow 

You will be free at last 

Facing death on open waters 

All your hope is running dry 

And I struggle with the never ending why 

I'm trying to write to you a song of peace and hope 

Of love that's strong enough to save you 

But when I think about the pain with which you cope 

I can't find the words although I try to 

I can't find the words although I try 

Few words, no promise 

Much space, no room 

You search for shelter 

As the walls close in on you 

We see your desperation 

On our tv screens 

We speak of reaching out to you 

But we don't know what that means 

Cause by the time you reach our doorstep 

Miles and miles away from war 

There are fences that were never here before 

I'm trying to write to you a song of peace and hope 

Of love that's strong enough to save you 

But when I think about the pain with which you cope 

I can't find the words although I try to 

I can't find the words although I try 

It's bigger than we are prepared for 

So let's not waste another day 

On defending what's not threatened 

Or on purposeless debate 

Cause by love we are united 

In the end we're all the same 

Here's my song to you, it's what I want to say 

We're all in this together 

I think about you every minute of the day 

And hope that soon things will get better
