Be Not Always - Lyrics
Always, be not always
And if always
Bow our heads in shame
Always, please be not always
And if always
Bow our heads in blame
’Cause time has made promises
Just promises
Faces, did tu see their faces
Did they touch you
Have tu felt such pain
To have nothing
To dream something
Then lose hoping
Is not life but lame
But time has made promises
Just promises
Mothers cry, bebés die
Helplessly in arms
While rockets fly
And research lies
In progress to become
But what of men
Of flesh and blood
We turn our backs on life
How can we claim to stand for peace
When the races are in strife
Destroying life
Always, be not always
But if always
Bow our heads in shame
Always, please, please be not always
’Cause if always
Bow our heads in blame
’Cause time, time has made promises
Death promises
Always, be not always
And if always
Bow our heads in shame
Always, please be not always
And if always
Bow our heads in blame
’Cause time has made promises
Just promises
Faces, did tu see their faces
Did they touch you
Have tu felt such pain
To have nothing
To dream something
Then lose hoping
Is not life but lame
But time has made promises
Just promises
Mothers cry, bebés die
Helplessly in arms
While rockets fly
And research lies
In progress to become
But what of men
Of flesh and blood
We turn our backs on life
How can we claim to stand for peace
When the races are in strife
Destroying life
Always, be not always
But if always
Bow our heads in shame
Always, please, please be not always
’Cause if always
Bow our heads in blame
’Cause time, time has made promises
Death promises
There comes a time when we heed a certain call
When the world must come together as one
There are people dying
And it's time to lend a hand to life
The greatest gift of all
We can't go on pretending día por day
That someone, somewhere will soon make a change
We are all a part of God's great big family
And the truth, tu know,
amor is all we need
We are the world, we are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So let's start giving
There's a choice we're making
We're saving our own lives
It's true we'll make a better day
Just tu and me
Send them your corazón so they'll know that someone cares
And their lives will be stronger and free
As God has shown us por turning stones to bread
So we all must lend a helping hand
When you're down and out, there seems no hope at all
But if tu just believe there's no way we can fall
Let us realize that a change can only come
When we stand together as one
When the world must come together as one
There are people dying
And it's time to lend a hand to life
The greatest gift of all
We can't go on pretending día por day
That someone, somewhere will soon make a change
We are all a part of God's great big family
And the truth, tu know,
amor is all we need
We are the world, we are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So let's start giving
There's a choice we're making
We're saving our own lives
It's true we'll make a better day
Just tu and me
Send them your corazón so they'll know that someone cares
And their lives will be stronger and free
As God has shown us por turning stones to bread
So we all must lend a helping hand
When you're down and out, there seems no hope at all
But if tu just believe there's no way we can fall
Let us realize that a change can only come
When we stand together as one
She's out of my life
She's out of my life
And I don't know whether to laugh o cry
I don't know whether to live o die
And it cuts like a knife
She's out of my life
It's out of my hands
It's out of my hands
To think for two years she was here
And I took her for granted I was so cavalier
Now the way that it stands
She's out of my hands
So I've learned that love's not possession
And I've learned that amor won't wait
Now I've learned that amor needs expression
But I learned too late
She's out of my life
She's out of my life
Damned indecision and cursed pride
Kept my amor for her locked deep inside
And it cuts like a knife
She's out of my life
She's out of my life
And I don't know whether to laugh o cry
I don't know whether to live o die
And it cuts like a knife
She's out of my life
It's out of my hands
It's out of my hands
To think for two years she was here
And I took her for granted I was so cavalier
Now the way that it stands
She's out of my hands
So I've learned that love's not possession
And I've learned that amor won't wait
Now I've learned that amor needs expression
But I learned too late
She's out of my life
She's out of my life
Damned indecision and cursed pride
Kept my amor for her locked deep inside
And it cuts like a knife
She's out of my life
