One blue sky above us,
One ocean, lapping all our shores.
One earth so green and round,
Who could ask for more? 

And because I love you
I'll give it one more try
To show my rainbow race
It's too soon to die. 

Some folks want to be like an ostrich;
Bury their heads in the sand
Some hope for plastic dreams
To unclench all those greedy hands. 

Some want to take the easy way:
Poisons, bombs! They think we need 'em.
Don't they know you can't kill all the unbelievers.
There's no shortcut to freedom 

One blue sky above us,
One ocean, lapping all our shores.
One earth so green and round,
Who could ask for more? 

And because I love you
I'll give it one more try.
To show my rainbow race
It's too soon to die. 

Go tell, go tell all the little children!
Go tell mothers and fathers, too:
Now's our last chance to learn to share
What's been given to me and you 

One blue sky above us,
One ocean, lapping all our shores.
One earth so green and round,
Who could ask for more?
