Now everybody has a right to be living their lives
Ooo, but we're a long long way, a long way from paradise;
If there is freedom, tell me why everybody wants to fight
'Cause we're a long long way, a long way from paradise
You might be strong enough
YOu might be rich enough
You might be blind enough
To push it all aside
No matter what you do
It keeps comin' back to me and you...
Give a little bit of love and you get it back
Give a little bit of pain, you're caught in a trap
For every little thing that you say or do
Give a little bit of love and it will come back to you.
You've got your reasons, but are you sure they're reasons to be right?
'Cause we're a long long way a long way from paradise
Don't let your anger or your fear become your suicide
'Cause we're a long long way, a long way from paradise
We must be strong enough
We must be great enough
We've waited long enough
Now it's time to say goodbye;
We've got some rules to burn
So many lessons to be learned
Give a little bit of love and you get it back
Give a little bit of pain, you're caught in a trap
For every little thing that you say or do
Give a little bit of love and it will come back to you.
Now I believe in peace and harmony
You've got to believe in love
Before you can be free
So take a hand, everybody make a friend
I want you to believe in love
Like I believe
