Songtexte World in Motion - Dave Kelly

Sun going down in the USA
Down on Main, there's a family sleeping in the doorway
Around the corner, you can hear the sound
Of people dancing around that golden cow
Those who have not and those who have

On the billboard and the TV screen
They got food, cars, toys, trucks and jeans
Like a homeless child's fitful dream
Smiling faces free from want and
Life's abundances beyond counting

World in motion, speed your changes
Close your distances, find your angels
Lose your fears and meet your dangers
World in motion

Once we were running through smoke and fire
Running into the sun
In the rush of youth for love and truth
Our deeds were done
Now we awake and there's a world at stake
And the race we run, we run

Sun going down in the USA
Sun coming up a hundred years away
On another world and another time
Things like hunger, greed and hatred
One way or another got to be eradicated

World in motion, speed your changes
Close your distances, find your angels
Lose your fears and meet your dangers
World in motion

Tell the world I look out at this world and see
Is the world I know this world can be
Have a volunteer in me
Come on
Come on
