The day the world gets 'round
to understanding where it is,
Using all it's found,
to help each other, hand in hand

The day the world gets 'round
to understanding where it's gone
Losing so much ground
killing each other, hand in hand
Such foolishness in man
I want no part of their plan - OH NO

If you're the destructive kind
Now I'm working from day to day
As I don't want to be like you
I look for the pure of heart
And the ones that have made a start,

But Lord, there are just a few
who bow before you,
in silence they pray,

Oh how they pray for the day the
world gets 'round

Using all they've found
To help each other, hand in hand

The Day The World Gets 'RoundAnd if she asks you why, 
you can tell her that I told you 
That I'm tired of castles in the air. 
I've got a dream I want the world to share 
And castle walls just lead me to despair. 

Hills of forest green where the mountains touch the sky, 
A dream come true, I'll live there till I die. 
I'm asking you to say my last goodbye. 
The love we knew ain't worth another try. 

Save me from all the trouble and the pain. 
I know I'm weak, but I can't face that girl again. 
Tell her the reasons why I can't remain, 
Perhaps she'll understand if you tell it to her plain. 

But how can words express the feel of sunlight in the morning, 
In the hills, away from city strife. 
I need a country woman for my wife; 
I'm city born, but I love the country life. 

For I cannot be part of the cocktail generation: 
Partners waltz, devoid of all romance. 
The music plays and everyone must dance. 
I'm bowing out. I need a second chance. 

Save me from all the trouble and the pain. 
I know I'm weak, but I can't face that girl again. 
Tell her the reasons why I can't remain, 
Perhaps she'll understand if you tell it to her plain. 

And if she asks you why, you can tell her that I told you 
That I'm tired of castles in the air. 
I've got a dream I want the world to share 
And castle walls just lead me to despair.
