For the world I love is dying
Rolled into one
We are a billion children
I have lived for love
And time is not a friend
As friends we're out of time
But when I hear of how
Saltwater wells in my eyes
But now that's not enough
The day that I die
We're so ingenious
Right before our eyes
And time is not a friend
We are a rock revolving
Saltwater wells in my eyes
We can walk on the moon
Saltwater wells in my eyes
And it's slowly passing by
Send photographs of Mars
(And now I'm crying)

For the world I love is dying
We climb the highest mountain
We're so enchanted by
What will I think of me
The forests have died
I have lived for love
And it's slowly passing by
The hole in the sky
Saltwater wells in my eyes
(And now I'm crying)

(No friend of mine)
How clever we are
We light the deepest ocean
Right before our eyes
We are a billion children
As friends we're out of time
Why should one baby
(No friend of mine)
We'll make the desert bloom
Saltwater wells in my eyes
Feel so hungry she cries
But now that's not enough

So when I hear about
Rolled into one
Around a golden sun
