They say the time has come for us 
to start again 
i believe that's true 
they say the time has come for us 
to make amends 
and i believe that too 
why tell me why 
is it all so hard to find 
i pray each day 
for a perfect world 
where children are laughing 
lovers romancing 
time stands still 
a perfect world 
there's nothing to cry for 
no one to die for 
wonderful 
in a perfect world 
our father's father says that 
things were better then 
how easy they forgot 
on every page in every book of history 
a thousand tears were shed 
there's hope in our hearts 
and love in our eyes 
day after day i keep searching 
why tell me why 
is it all so hard to find 
i pray each day 
for a perfect world... 
show me the way i'm to understand 
that you prove to myself that i'm a man 
and you love, but you can't look from above 
travel cross the seven seas to be with you 
passion and desire will see me through 
the road that i must travel will wind and curl 
you're all i ever needed in a perfect world
