A Better Place Lyrics

Is it uncommon to want to love

People who're in need of love, love

Is it uncommon to want to care

For people who're in need of care, care

Is it uncommon to want to help,

People who're in need of help

Is it uncommon to want to feel

For others while they're in despair, hey yeah

But oh, tell me it's not so

Tell me the world can be a better place

Beyond colour creed or race

Ooh, tell me it's not true

Tell me I'll find a world where people say

They'd give up everything for a day

To make the world a better place

Is it uncommon to succeed

Having paid a life of dues

Is it uncommon to have seen

Yourself in someone else's shoes

Is it uncommon to believe

In someone's sense of charity

Is it uncommon to live our lives

Free of all hypocrisy

Oh, tell me it's not so

Tell me the world can be a better place

Beyond colour creed or race

Ooh, tell me it's not true

Tell me that people care enough to say

They'd give up everything for a day

There's so much we can do to make a better place

(Make the world a better place)

If we could give of ourselves unconditionally

Maybe then our souls would have a better chance

At eternity

Oh, tell me it's not so

Tell me the world can be a better place

Beyond colour creed or race

Ooh, tell me it's not true

Tell me that people care enough to say

They'd give up everything for a day

To make the world a better place oh, oh

Make the world a better place oh, oh

To make the world a better place
