Lyrics

If it´s love you want
Well open up your eyes
If it´s freedom
Well darling, wave goodbye

I´ll paint a picture of the things that we are not
And make a world of all the worlds that we have lost

Poverty has never been this poor
Oh, I can´t live like this anymore
There´s one or two things that I´d miss
Oh, I´m just wasting all my time with all of this

If it´s life you want
Well up and go outside
If it´s right or wrong
We´ll leave up to time

I´ll paint a picture of the things that we have not
And make a world of all the worlds that we forgot

Poverty has never been this poor
Oh, I can´t live like this anymore
The world dissolves in an abyss
That I wasted all my life trying to fix

It´s all I´ve got
And it is all I know
But it´s worth so much more
Than all your wealth and gold

I´ll paint a picture of the things that we are not
And plant a garden in the deserts that we cross

Poverty has never been this poor
Oh, I have never loved you more
We see the land we love at war
Oh, I, I´ll keep in my heart forever more
