Big Country - One Greate Thing lyrics

rate me

If there's one great thing

To happen in my life

If there's one great day

If there's one great height

Let it be the time for peace

Let it be the time of right

If there's one great thing

To happen in my life

I've seen to much of what fighting has done

I've seen too much anger

I've seen it far too young

And talk will come to nothing

While the shouting still goes on

But we are only singers

And too many songs are sung

I've seen the way of martyrs

I've seen the way of kings

I've seen the hope that love can bring

I only hope what pleases me

Will also pleasure you

For mine can never be the hands

That make a dream come true
