From A Distance Lyrics


From a distance the world looks blue and green
And the snow capped mountains white
From a distance the ocean meets the stream
And the eagle takes to flightFrom a distance, there is harmony
And it echoes through the land
It's the voice of hope, it's the voice of peace
It's the voice of every manFrom a distance we all have enough
And no one is in need
And there are no guns, no bombs, and no disease
No hungry mouths to feedFrom a distance we are instruments
Marching in a common band
Playing songs of hope, playing songs of peace
They're the songs of every manGod is watching us, God is watching us
God is watching us from a distanceFrom a distance you look like my friend
Even though we are at war
From a distance I just cannot comprehend
What all this fighting is forFrom a distance there is harmony
And it echoes through the land

And it's the hope of hopes, it's the love of loves
It's the heart of every man
(Every man)It's the hope of hopes, it's the love of loves
This is the song of every manAnd God is watching us, God is watching us
God is watching us from a distance
Oh, God is watching us, God is watching
God is watching us from a distance

Bette Midler (December 1, 1945) is an American singer, actress, and comedian, also known to her fans and especially in gay culture, as The Divine Miss M. She was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, to Jewish parents from New Jersey, and raised there. Midler relocated to New York City to pursue acting on stage, and in 1970 she began singing at the Continental Baths, a gay bathhouse in the city, where she became close to her piano accompanist, Barry Manilow, who produced her first major album, The Divine Miss M in 1973. She is named after the actress Bette Davis although Davis pronounced her name in two syllables, and Midler uses one.

During her career, she has won four Grammy Awards, four Golden Globes, three Emmy Awards, and a Tony Award, and has been nominated for two Academy Awards. She is currently performing a new concert show, The Showgirl Must Go On, live five nights a week as one of the current headliners at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas (together with Cher and Elton John).
