Lately, it’s not enough to want it bad,
Or give it everything you have,
‘Cause one day it’ll all fall flat.
These days it’s not about how fast you are,
Whether you’re working smart or hard,
Or if you’ve got a lot of heart.
But if we love like we should,
All the people in the neighborhood,
Lines of average, bad or good will disappear.
‘Til we learn how to love,
The other stuff will never be enough.
It's a long way off but we can get there from here.
Today, it’s not all of the folks you know,
The things that you can tell and show,
That determine how far you go.
And now when we’re living in crazy times,
It’s better to be safe than kind,
‘Cause we’d rather have our peace of mind.
But if we love like we should,
All the people in the neighborhood,
Lines of average, bad or good will disappear.
Until we learn how to love,
The other stuff will never be enough.
It’s a long way off but we can get there from here.
But if we love like we should,
All the people in the neighborhood.
Lines of average, bad or good will disappear.
Until we learn how to love,
The other stuff will never be enough.
It’s a long way off but we can get there from here.
It may be a long way off but we can get there from here.
It may be a long way off but we can get there from here.
