[Intro:]
Think about the generations and say that we want to make it a better place for our children, and our children's children, so that they know it's a better world for them And think, if they can make it a better place..
Verse 1
There's a place in your heart
And I know that it is love
And this place could be much
Brighter than tomorrow
And if you really try
You'll find there's no need to cry
In this place you'll feel
There's no hurt or sorrow
Pre – Chorus
There are ways to get there
If you care enough for the living
Make a little space
Make a better place
Chorus
Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me
And the entire human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make it a better place
For you and for me
Verse 2
If you want to know why
There's a love that cannot lie
Love is strong,
it only cares for joyful giving
If we try, we shall see
In this bliss we cannot feel
Fear or dread,
we stop existing and start living
[Pre -Chorus 2]
Then it feels that always
Love's enough for us growing
So make a better world
To make a better world
Chorus
Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me
And the entire human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make it a better place
for you and for me
[Bridge]
And the dream we were conceived in
will reveal a joyful face
And the world we once believed
in will shine again in grace
Then why do we keep strangling life?
Would this Earth crucify its soul?
Though it's plain to see
This world is heavenly
Be God's glow
[Verse 3]
We could fly so high
Let our spirits never die
In my heart, I feel you are all my brothers
Create a world with no fear
Together, we'll cry happy tears
See the nations Turn their swords into ploughshares
[Pre-Chorus 3]
We could really get there
If you cared enough for the living
Make a little space
To make a better place
[Chorus]
Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me
And the entire human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place For you and for me
[Post-Chorus]
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place
For you and for me
