Surely We Can Change

And the problem is this

We were bought with a kiss

But the cheek still turned

Even when it wasn’t hit

And I don’t know

What to do with a love like that

And I don’t know

How to be a love like that

When all the love in the world

Is right here among us, and hatred too

So we must choose

What our hands will do

Where there is pain, let there be grace

Where there is suffering, bring serenity

For those afraid, help them be brave

Where there is misery, bring expectancy

And surely we can change

Surely we can change something

And the problem it seems

Is with you and me

Not the Love who came

To repair everything

And I don’t know

What to do with a love like that

And I don’t know

How to be a love like that

When all the love in the world

Is right here among us, and hatred too

And so we must choose

What our hands will do

Where there is pain, let us bring grace

Where there is suffering, bring serenity

For those afraid, let us be brave

Where there is misery, let us bring them relief

And surely we can change

Surely we can change

Oh, surely we can change something

Oh, the world’s about to change

The whole world’s about to change

The whole world’s about to change

The whole world’s about to change

The whole world’s about to change

The whole world’s about to change
