When you're a centrist
Everyone agrees
Cause everybody thinks you're wrong

When you're a centrist
Everyone agrees
Cause they all say you don't belong

But if you talk to one person at a time
And bring them just a little toward the middle
One step at a time
Before they know it they're on your side

Take your left hand
Reach as far as you can
But don't give up your ground

Take your right hand
Reach out to the right side
Don't let them pull you around

And then connect two hands at a time
Make a chain that snakes its way across the middle
One link at a time
Before they know it they're all entwined

There is so much
Space here in the middle
All of you can stand with me

There is so much
We can do together
Without this dichotomy

It happens one day at a time
Shifting just a little toward the middle
After enough time
There aren't that many sitting on the sides

Why not get up and move around
And mingle just a little in the middle?
One big fabulous party, we'll be
Dancing in the aisle

I wish

We all felt love

No hate

We all felt joy

No sorrow

We all felt hope

No despair

How can I make this so?

I can begin with my own mind

Plant one seed of peace

Let it bloom into a tender vine

And wrap its tender green arms around the whole world

Until the whole world is encircled

Within the web of my peace

O if only

For a moment

Let it be

People love dark
People love light
People love day
People love night

People love Sun
People love Moon
People love sky
People love blue

People love land
People love sea
People love animals
People love peace

People love people
People love things
Small wonder
People sing

People love soul
People love heart
Stars build people
People love stars

People love deep
People love real
People will fall
People will feel

People forgive
People cry
People build things
People fly

People love song  
People love God
Deep wonder
People love

We shine our own soul on the rainbow
Weave the Moon a painted halo
Faint and pale glow in the night
We write our beauty on the light

She walked right through a rainbow
Sparkling veil of mist and light
And though she was a part of it
All that she saw was white

She walked all the way through the storm
Turned to face it again
And saw the dazzling beauty
That lit up the falling rain

Dear God, I don't know if you're real,
But either way, I pray for peace
In my land, their land, every land
America, the Middle East
They **** each other in your name
I don't know how that makes you feel
I'm kind of angry with you, God
Or I would be if you were real

Oh what, now is this blasphemy?
Then come down and give me a sign.
Spread peace and love throughout the land
And make it 'ours', not 'yours' and 'mine'
Come on, God, please, just bring us peace
I'll hold up my end of the deal
If you just bring us peace on Earth
I'll the whole world that you're real.
