Maybe someday There'll be some solution Though it may well Need a revolution Then there will be no one to blame Like they ever came It's easy to see that we may Learn to love one another Spend some time with your loved ones Let your troubles melt away There's a time and a place for everything So try to relax and let your mind run free Live every moment happy that you may
