Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Why can't we be (Together?)

Could you love me?

Don't hate me

I don't see (Why can't we live together?)

Maybe we can get it on

Maybe we can get along

Should be our destiny

And if you wanna rise up

(We still got the streak of love inside us)

We can make this hate stop

(Don't take all the shame)

Now don't you wanna rise up?

[Verse 2]

We been givin' hate a chance

We got all this love to give, you know

And the love will be running out for us

Can you feel the dreams of life?

We're hoping we can still survive

As the wind carries every dove away

[Verse 3]

So why do we see (These colors?)

It's only skin deep, don't mean a thing

So clear (Underneath this, we're all brothers)

Can't you see it's killin' us?

Can't you see it's killin' us?

Can't you see it's killin' me?

Trigger-happy fantasy

So stand up and be (So strong now)

We can make this hate stop

Now don't you wanna rise up?

[Verse 4]

We been givin' hate a chance

We got all this love to give, you know

And the love will be runnin' out for us

Can you feel the dreams of life?

We're hopin' we can still survive

As the wind carries every dove away

[Verse 5]

The wind carries every dove away

The wind carries every dove away

Every dove away

[Verse 6]

Now you've been taking our dignity for too long

I want to save this sanctity that we hold

And who's right and who is wrong?

We're not so different anyway

Words are in this song

Can't we stop the fighting?

[Verse 7]

'Cause we been giving hate a chance

(Don't give this hate a chance)

(We got all this love to give, you know)

We got all this love to give

(And the love will be running out for us)

I feel the love is gonna run for us

Can you feel the dreams of life?

We're hoping we can still survive

As the wind carries every dove away

[Verse 8]

Don't give this hate a chance

We got all this love to give, you know

That this dream's alive, we'll still survive

(Carries every dove away)

Until no more people have to cry

[Verse 9]

Don't give this hate a chance

The wind carries every dove away
