Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Where have I
[Verse 2]
Oh, all babies together, everyone a seed
Half of us are satisfied, half of us in need
Love's bountiful in us, but it's tarnished by our greed
Oh, when will there be a harvest for the world?
(Harvest for the world)
When there be? (Harvest for the world)
Yeah, yeah (Harvest for the world)
[Verse 3]
A nation planted but so concerned with gain
As the seasons come and go, greater grows the pain
And far too many are feeling the strain
When will there be a harvest for the world?
(Harvest for the world)
When will there be? (Harvest for the world)
Yeah, yeah yeah (Harvest for the world)
[Verse 4]
Gather every man, gather every woman
Celebrate your lives, give thanks for our children
Gather everyone, gather all together
Overlooking none, hoping life gets better for the world
(Harvest for the world)
(Harvest for the world)
(Harvest for the world)
[Verse 5]
You wanna dress me up for battle, when all I want is peace
Those of us who pay the price, come home with the least
And nation after nation are turning into beasts
Oh, when will there be a harvest for the world?
(Harvest for the world)
(Harvest for the world)
[Verse 6]
When will there be, yeah? (Harvest for the world)
(Harvest for the world)
When it all breaks down (Harvest for the world)
(Harvest for the world)
(Harvest for the world)
[Verse 7]
When will there be? (Harvest for the world)
(Harvest for the world)
(Harvest for the world)
When will there be? (Harvest for the world)
(Harvest for the world)
