Where is the love that we use to know? Where’re the lives that use to grow? Where is the joy that use to glow? The gentle smiles that set life aglow Where’s beauty for our young ones to see? Where’s life for the creatures in the sea? You know the air was once clean and free? Can you now understand my plea? Here, there, everywhere Lives are taken without fear No more is a thing held dear Here, there, everywhere Not an ear left to care And life has become hard to bear Can we turn the dark hands of time? When killing was seen as a crime Stop the ruins, the tragedies in time Else the doom will catch up sometime Where’s beauty for our young ones to see? Where’s life for the creatures in the sea? You know the air was once clean and free? Can you now understand my plea? Here, there, everywhere Lives are taken without fear No more is a thing held dear Here, there, everywhere Not an ear left to care And life has become hard to bear

HERE, THERE, EVERYWHERE
Where is the love that we use to know? Where’re the lives that use to grow? Where is the joy that use to glow? The gentle smiles that set life aglow Where’s beauty for our young ones to see? Where’s life for the creatures in the sea? You know the air was once clean and free? Can you now understand my plea? Here, there, everywhere Lives are taken without fear No more is a thing held dear Here, there, everywhere Not an ear left to care And life has become hard to bear Can we turn the dark hands of time? When killing was seen as a crime Stop the ruins, the tragedies in time Else the doom will catch up sometime Where’s beauty for our young ones to see? Where’s life for the creatures in the sea? You know the air was once clean and free? Can you now understand my plea? Here, there, everywhere Lives are taken without fear No more is a thing held dear Here, there, everywhere Not an ear left to care And life has become hard to bear
