Lyrics

PICTURE A WORLD

Picture a world where lifelong lovers
never get a chance to meet
Picture a world that's paved with gold
but the homeless still walk the streets

Picture a world where we all have wings
but we're all afraid to fly
Picture a world full of sunny days
yet rain still pours from the sky

Life's been a contradiction
Since we said "I do"
We spoke it with complete conviction
But couldn't see it through
I don't know why, they say love is blind
'cause it's looking down on me
I can't picture a world without you now
'cause you're all that I can see

Picture a world where we all can sing
but nobody else can hear
Picture a world where the brave are loved
but everyone lives in fear

Picture a world where the rich all give
but nobody wants to receive
Picture a world where we speak of faith
but no one truly believes

Life's been a contradiction
Since we said "I do"
We spoke it with complete conviction
But couldn't see it through
I don't know why, they say love is blind
'cause it's looking down on me
I can't picture a world without you now
'cause you're all that I can see

Picture a world with no crime
yet no one can get along
Picture a world with no black or white
yet no one knows right from wrong

Picture a world where there's no lies
but no one can handle the truth
Picture a world where you stand alone
that's how I see it without you

Life's been a contradiction
Since we said "I do"
We spoke it with complete conviction
But couldn't see it through
I don't know why, they say love is blind
'cause it's looking down on me
I can't picture a world without you now
'cause you're all that I can see
