Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Supper’s on the table and the TV’s on
Pictures of a country where the rain is gone
Children with no shoes on a dusty road
And we change the channel when the story’s told
[Chorus]
It’s a long way from here
To a world that’s fair
A long way from here
But we’ve got to get there
If we close our eyes
It won’t disappear
It’s a long, long way from here
[Verse 2]
Easy to forget when your belly’s full
Easy to believe that it’s not your call
But every hand that rises makes the load less heavy
Every heart that opens makes the road less steep
[Chorus]
It’s a long way from here
To a world that’s fair
A long way from here
But we’ve got to get there
If we close our eyes
It won’t disappear
It’s a long, long way from here
[Bridge]
One by one, side by side
Nobody left outside
If we walk it together
Then the distance gets shorter
[Chorus]
It’s a long way from here
To a world that’s fair
A long way from here
But we’ve got to get there
If we close our eyes
It won’t disappear
It’s a long, long way from here
