The Children Sing

(chorus)

don't take this, don't take this world away from me

don't take this world away from me

don't take this, don't take this world away from me

don't take this, don't take this world awaythe future decides the roles we play

the struggles to sell the past away

the after thought is staring back on better days

cause our daughters and sons will live to pay

through every mistake that we have made

through every conviction we've betrayed

so let the children sing(chorus)

don't take this, don't take this world away from me

don't take this world away from meyeah

so while we contempt to waste away

the answer that only time could chase

the question we'll ask ourselves from here, to eternity

will it be worth the price to pay

to living the lives of our remains

how do you think we will explain

when the children sing(chorus)

don't take this, don't take this world away from me

don't take this world away from mecan we find a way

to face today

with the eye on the things to come

cause mistakes we've made

bring on decay

and our chance to make a difference will be gone

oh

yeah (x2)so this is the price to pay (this is the price to pay)

for living in our remains (living in our remains)

just listen as the children sing(chorus)

don't take this, don't take this world away (away)

don't take this, don't take this world away from me

don't take this world away from mewhoa, whoa, whoa. (x2)
