Eric Woolfson - What Kind Of World Lyrics
No joy to share, to love to spare
What kind of world to bring a child to
So much confusion and despair
No comfort there
And in this war worth dying for,
What kind of world to bring a child to
Whoever's right, whoever's wrong
They just go on
They must go on
'Til the last one dies
And the weeping willow cries
As the darkness comes again
To the earth below
Where the winter winds will blow
As the darkness comes again
And so you live upon our knees
What kind of world to bring a child to
Beneath an everlasting cloud
We cry aloud
And so my child, I'm warning you
There's every reason to be careful
Beware the darkness in their eyes
They'll cheat you blind
And tell you lies
And if I do what I must do
There's every reason to be thankful
Be thankful you were never born
You'll never grow
You'll never know
When the last one dies
And the weeping willow cries
As the darkness comes again
To the earth below
Where the winter winds will blow
As the darkness comes again
What kind of world?
What kind of world!
As the darkness comes again...
No joy to share, to love to spare
What kind of world to bring a child to
So much confusion and despair
No comfort there
And in this war worth dying for,
What kind of world to bring a child to
Whoever's right, whoever's wrong
They just go on
They must go on
'Til the last one dies
And the weeping willow cries
As the darkness comes again
To the earth below
Where the winter winds will blow
As the darkness comes again
And so you live upon our knees
What kind of world to bring a child to
Beneath an everlasting cloud
We cry aloud
And so my child, I'm warning you
There's every reason to be careful
Beware the darkness in their eyes
They'll cheat you blind
And tell you lies
And if I do what I must do
There's every reason to be thankful
Be thankful you were never born
You'll never grow
You'll never know
When the last one dies
And the weeping willow cries
As the darkness comes again
To the earth below
Where the winter winds will blow
As the darkness comes again
What kind of world?
What kind of world!
As the darkness comes again...
