Great Expectations

A great expectation
Behind every door
The world as a nation
No wars anymore
No boundaries at all
And no economies to fall
A world to be proud and happy of
When the world falls in love

This great expectation
Is now growing cold
And love and devotion
Is not in the world
For hearing dismay
It seems further every day
And while people pray in every way
What does living display?

In the north, in the south
In the east and in the west
People cry, people shout
People die in bitterness

A great expectation
Lies in many hearts
But participation
Is so hard to start
How can we maintain
All this misery and pain?
Making life a strain, but who's to blame?
While the world stays the same

In the north, in the south
In the east and in the west
People cry, people shout
People die in bitterness

A great expectation
Lies in many hearts
But participation
Is so hard to start
