You tell me there`s no darkness
While the sun shines down on you
And just because your life is peaceful
There`s no fighting left to do
For every cup that runneth over
Many more are filled with pain
You talk to me of sunshine
When it`s pouring down with rain
Just because you can`t see it
Doesn`t mean it isn`t there
Just because it can`t touch you
Doesn`t mean you shouldn`t care
For every life that`s lit with love
Many more are racked with pain
You talk to me of sunshine
When it`s pouring down with rain
(CHORUS)
It`s a long black night, good people
Descended on our land
Share your light
Make a flower grow
In the desert sand
