It's sad to see we may never be the way we were before
We don't believe in the magic of the music anymore
And everything's older now and colder and gray
Oh darlin', I believe there's got to be a better way
It seems to me we've forgotten how to let our feelings show
We seem to be so much farther from the dreams we used to know
And too many more, my friend, are dying today
Oh darlin', I believe there's got to be a better way
Listen to the fallen angels learning how to spread their wings
How will they make it all alone?
Look into the children's laughter
Tell me what tomorrow brings for those so far away from home
And I can say I'm not sorry for the things we tried to be
But I'm afraid what we're heading toward is up to you and me
'Cause we got a choice; the future is ours you see
We got a chance to change today
Oh darlin', don't you believe there's got to be a better way
'Cause we got a choice; the future is ours you see
We got a chance to change it today
Oh, I believe together there can be a better way
Oh, if we believe together we can build a better way
